Really? I use two-factor for PayPal but my ebay account doesn't require it.
Maybe they aren't linked...

As soon as PayPal offered the two-factor I got it and used it up until

A while back they offered customers two-factor auth. Wonder how many of
us actually took them up on it.

Hi All,

Just a heads up:

Cheers,
Harry
