Error on auction with Weak eBay password

Error on auction with Weak eBay password

eBay had started to tighten their security by blocking users with weak password combination and we posted the warning earlier on October 10th. We feel that this issue should be addressed again to all new users in order to prevent any failed bid.


Recently, eBay has been blocking users with weak password combination. If you
receive a warning message when signing in to JustSnipe, you should try to change
your password combination on eBay to a stronger one (with letters, numbers, and
capital letters). Once you have done so and then updated your eBay information
on JustSnipe accordingly, you can rest assured that our service will be able to
successfully place bids on your behalf.
