Keeping clandestine forces at bay is no mean feat. In this special report, ZDNet Australia features five leading security experts -- from eBay to Ukraine's Computer Crime Research Center -- who pursue cyber criminals for a living.
eBay Australia has announced the launch of the PayPal Buyer Protection program on the auction Web site.
Auction giant eBay is taking the unusual step of removing the option of setting a reserve price for users of its Australian site.
With 21 million items listed on its Web site every day, it is easy to tell why eBay has become the favourite target for organised e-scams in Australia. The NSW police reports that over the past 12 months, 600 people have been victimized by fraudsters on eBay. However, Katrina Johnson, eBay Australia Trust and Security Director, says "Because we are a large site, we get reported more but it does not necessarily mean we are getting targeted by organised crimes. There is really no organised crime targeting eBay per se but sometimes it just comes out different in the media."
Local eBay users will not be troubled by the pop-up ads that are set to infiltrate the screens of their American counterparts.
