This happened on the eBay forums this morning, someone posted hundreds of posts that contained usernames, passwords, addresses and credit card numbers.
eBay is calling the incident a "malicious fraudster" and that the credit card numbers displayed were not associated with financial information on file for users at eBay or PayPal.
However they state they are "n the process of reaching out by phone to these members to, so that if the information is valid somehow -- regardless how this fraudster acquired the information -- these members can take the steps they need to take to protect themselves."
