E-Bayers Beware!  Guard your personal info!

13-Year-Old Spends $2 Million On Ebay

ROGERS, Ohio - A 13-year-old boy spent about $2 million from a school computer buying a helicopter, a jet and other items over the Internet using a password belonging to a friend's mother, authorities said. The woman discovered the purchases the day the helicopter's owner called and asked how she intended to pay for the aircraft. She is having the purchases canceled. The $1.1 million helicopter is a used military model. The boy has not made it clear what he intended to do with his purchases.

Beth, now didn't I say becoming hooked on e-bay could be a bad thing, huh?  But I'm sure you're more careful who does and doesn't have your password.  E-Mail it with me, gel!  You know I'm almost your best friend,  and  would never, ever land you in it!!
