The sad fact is that there is no way to prevent hacking so long as a system is connected to the Net. Even the NSA gets hacked. It's more a matter of when than if? Could very well be a vulnerability on Ebay side, maybe even a type of account spoofing, but I'd also check on your end to be safe.
Have you accessed this Ebay/PayPal account from the same computer since the accounts have been hacked?

Also review how you are connecting to the Net? Make sure you are using the most secure methods.
