    Knowing the encrypted password is a bit useless unless you know the encryption key really. I'd be more worried about someone now having a massive database of names, addresses, DOB and email addresses

    Since this hacking I have been getting calls from people claiming to be ebay, offering website building and shipping contracts. When questioned they claim they are ebay employees, but when investigated they are simply canvassers.

    Coincidence?
