My friend sent me an email but I have no idea how to advise her because I do not use E Bay.

"actually, I've ordered something on ebay, but the payment page said, "this card number is already assigned". I do not understand at all. It just keeps saying it. So I have no way to pay the seller.........i want to get rid of that problem as soon as possible, so I think I cannot meet you with that problem."


Can anyone advise what "this card number is already assigned". means please?

I thought she might have two accounts, but she says no.

thanks!

I've never seen that message but googling gives endless relsults that suggest that the card number has already been added to another paypal account.

Best advice is to get in touch with paypal ASAP in case its being used fraudulently.

perhaps she did setup a paypal account a while back and has simlpy forgotten about it?

Hi masseur!

Yes, I went straight to google and found that too...

Her classes finish at 1.00pm so I will tell her that too....

I think so too, but she said no, but maybe later she will say ' Oh yes,,, I remember.. '

Thanks for your advice.
