    Default I think my iPhone has a virus or something

    I was browsing m.eBay.com(not the app) on my iPhone and found some mufflers I wanted to buy. the seller is Summit Racing. they had a "buy it now" option so I clicked on it. entered "2" for quantity then went through all the checkout processes. this was around 12pm yesterday.

    at about 7pm yesterday, I get an email saying "you've won the item". I was like "WTF?!" I go to my computer, login to eBay, and sure enough somehow I purchased TWO more mufflers. I replied back to the email I got stating that this had to be some type of glitch or error. I only purchased two mufflers (not four), and clicked "buy it now" one time. I bought nothing else after that.

    as soon as I sit back down on the couch, I get another email stating "I've won the auction" "WTF?!x1000". looked on my account again there shows TWO more mufflers.



    since it's the weekend I can't talk to anybody on the phone. I chatted online with eBay and they were no help. just told me to contact the seller and ask to retract my "bids". but then they could file an unpaid item case on me and/or leave negative feedback.

    I have a perfect feedback score, and need to know how something like this has happened. I use AVG for virus protection and use Firefox as my browser. never has anything like this happened to me. and I can't find any other people this has happened to from a google search.

    I will be calling summit and eBay Monday, but I can't help but feel very frustrated til then. hopefully they can remove those "bids" and I won't have to shell out an add'l $300.

    it prob was just a glitch, im sure summit will gladly fix the problem for you specialy seeing you are still going to buy two of there products.. And if you think you may have virus a restore never really hurt anything
    Hey! A Restore Never Hurts It's True!
