I don't know what's going on with the internet and the new AI insertion of all these websites but now I am unable to buy or message and I guess sell on ebay. I can access and login and change my password but but still get the red banner if I click to buy something or message someone.

How long till the lock expires?

Re: Locked out of ebay now
There's actually a pretty good community/forum on eBay where you can ask these questions and are more likely to get the information you need.

Sounds like your account might have been hacked. Change your password and contact eBay support. These protection measures are there for a reason.
