Hope the mods will overlook the "not Disney pin related" nature of this post, in the interest of gaining eyes.

Ebay is reporting that they have had a data breach of "non-financial information" and is recommending everyone change their password. Paypal, which is owned by Ebay, has not been affected. If you use your Ebay password on other sites, you probably should change those too.

Thank you for sharing this! It's important to keep on this stuff. If you've ever had money stolen from you, you know how much it hurts when thieves take your identity!
 
Lord it took me forever to even remember my Ebay password because I always hit "remember password" because I try to use a different password for everything and can never keep up. lol
 
I changed eBay after I read the article online. It took a whole for eBay to send me an email about the hack
