When I jumped on the ebay bandwagon years ago, they didn't require either a bank account number or credit card number. However, this reminds me of a friend of mine who bought something a few years back ... the deal was to get some electronics equipment from Radio Shack or something, and you got $x savings because part of the deal was a year or two of MSN as your ISP. If you cancelled the service you were billed for the remaining on the credit card you gave them. He cancelled the card and then cancelled the service, without realizing that they had no card to charge. Then when he didn't receive a phone call, he figured he'd just got away with something pretty nifty. For this reason I imagine somebody could give ebay a credit card number or bank account number and then close the account, and it might take a while before ebay got around to finding out this had been done, if at all. Not that I'm suggesting anybody go out and try this, I'm just saying that there are ways to cheat almost anybody ... Like writing e-mail on company time. Doh! Back to work.
