Please take a moment to help us confirm your identity Your online security is very important to eBay. It looks like you signed in from a computer we are not familiar with. Although we know you may use different computers, we're taking this extra precaution to prevent unauthorized access to your account.

You'll receive an automated phone call and we'll provide you with a PIN. Enter that PIN on the next page. Where would you like to receive the call?

Some web pages get your computers ID information, and save it to your on-line profile. So when you try to access from another computer (Say a public terminal) the systems security program kicks in to recheck that you are you.
