The UK's information commissioner is working with European data authorities with a view to taking action against eBay over its recent data breach.Three US states are also investigating the theft of names, email addresses and other personal data, which affected up to 145 million eBay customers.
The online marketplace has begun the process of notifying its customers about the need to reset passwords.
However some customers reported problems when attempting to do so.
EBay told the BBC that it was not aware of any technical problems with the password reset function on the site.
"The site is busy, but our secure password reset tool is working," a spokesman said.
The firm has been criticised for its slow reaction in informing customers about the theft of personal data.
"We are sending out millions of emails, and it will take some time. The process is certainly well under way," the firm told the BBC.
It warned though that its official password reset email contained no links and that customers should be wary of messages that did.
"Any email with links is a phishing attempt," it said.
Serious breach
Meanwhile the fallout from the data breach was beginning to kick in.
In the US, Connecticut, Florida and Illinois said they were conducting a joint investigation.•••
