Someone is trying to use my gmail account for ebay. The thing I want to clarify is that I don't live in Romania because I live in the U.S. and the second thing is those 3 IP addresses aren't mine.

I was uberly pissed off once I saw that and I kept wondering who did that to me. Guess what I will just let the account be suspended. I don't even know how this email got to here.
