Five password bruteforcing attems were performed on your eBay account.


You must register and ID Verify certificate in order to remain in the eBay Community.
Dear eBay Community Member,
You (or someone else) has attempted to log in with your eBay ID and 5 diffrent wrong passwords.

According to our site policy you will have to confirm that you are the real owner of the eBay account by completing the following form or else your account will be suspended within 24 hours for investigations.

Establish your proof of identity with ID Verify (free of charge) - an easy way to help others trust you as their trading partner. The process takes about 5 minutes to complete and involves updating your eBay information. When you're successfully verified, you will receive an ID Verify icon in your feedback profile. Currently, the service is only available to residents of the United States and U.S. territories (Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands and Guam.)

Confirm my account information and continue beeing a member of the eBay Online Auction Community.

Never share your eBay password to anyone!



Regards,

Accounting Department,
eBay Inc.


Also nice to know that they offer this service free of charge
