Story: Thousands fall victim to data theft

I believe that I may be a victim of this virus.
My PayPal account was hacked into 2 weeks ago and used by someone on eBay.
I contacted the hacker via eBay. He/she apologised for 'borrowing' my account and then proceeded to deposit various sums of money stolen from other people's accounts into mine.
PayPal and eBay returned the money to their rightful owners, but have refused to communicate with me on any level. The only time I got a reply from PayPal was when I emailed them yet again saying I wanted the police invloved. Their response was that I would have to involve the police myself. They basically don't want to know.
The hacker is still there on eBay and has not had their account suspended. Unbelievable!
