Default Anyone had issue with unauthorised ebay messages from your account to sellers?

I opened my email this morning to find that I had sent hundreds of messages to sellers like this:-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Contact us ( gadorailio.com )now, then you will get what you need, wholesale: phones,PSP.display TV. notebook.video.computers. Mp3/4.GPS.Games??Bestsellers: ps3:260 EUR,N95:320 EUR,iPhone:225 eur,xbox elite:220EUR.....----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I know I did not send this email and have had various replies from unhappy sellers, so worried about the following:a) if they have the ability to send these mails they have the ability to purchase items b) they have ability to sell goods (such as stolen or illegal goods)c) My feedback rating will suffer?I fear my account has been hacked in some way so I have already taken the precaution of changing my account password and informed eBay. Anyone else had this problem?Martin

Change your password and contact eBay immediately. They can't effect your rating as such, and as long as you explain to eBay as soon as possible that it seems your account was hacked there should be a swift resolution.And yes, check that they haven't purchased anything already - as it is more than possible that they have. They have full access to your account at the moment.
