How to Secure Your eBay Account: Prevent Unauthorized Access

Securing Your eBay Account

• 📱 Open the eBay application and navigate to the My eBay section.
• ⚙️ Access Settings, then select Sign In & Security to begin securing your account.

Password and Two-Step Verification

• 🔑 Change your password to a strong, unique one (at least 12 characters with letters, numbers, and symbols), and avoid reusing passwords across different accounts.
• 🔒 Enable two-step verification for an extra layer of protection. You can choose to receive a code via text message or through the eBay app.
• 💬 This ensures that even if your password is compromised, unauthorized users cannot log in without access to your phone.

Personal Information and Scam Avoidance

• 📧 Verify and update your email address and phone number in your account settings to ensure you can recover your account if needed.
• 🚫 Avoid phishing scams by always using the official eBay application or going directly to ebay.com. Never sign in through links sent via email or text.

Device-Level Security

• 📱 Enable Face ID, Touch ID, or a strong passcode on your device for an additional layer of security on the eBay app.
• ✅ Following these steps will help prevent unauthorized access to your eBay account.
