eBay login URL: the real address
eBay's real sign-in page is on signin.ebay.com. If a link takes you anywhere else and asks for your eBay password, close it. We opened each address below on 9 November 2026.
eBay accounts (country sites such as ebay.co.uk use their own signin. address)
Domains eBay uses
Not a complete list. Each address below can have subdomains in front of it (www., login.), and they are still eBay's.
ebay.comebay.co.ukebay.deebay.com.auebay.ca
How to read the address
Look at the part between https:// and the first single /. Read it from the right. The real thing ends in ebay.com or another domain listed below, with nothing but a dot before it.
https://login.ebay.com/…is eBay: it ends in.ebay.com.https://ebay.com.account-check.example/…is not: it ends inaccount-check.example, and eBay's name at the front is decoration.https://ebay-secure-login.example/…is not: a hyphen makes a different domain, and anyone can register one.
Everything after the first / is chosen by whoever made the page, so …/ebay.com/signin in the path proves nothing.
What fake eBay pages looked like
On 5 November 2026, PhishTank listed 34 live, verified phishing URLs that its volunteers labelled eBay.
- 94.1% used HTTPS. The padlock means the connection is encrypted, not that the site is eBay.
- 0% had "ebay" in the hostname. Most fakes give no such clue, so the absence of eBay's name doesn't make a link safe either.
- 67.6% sat on services anyone can sign up to, such as website builders, file sharing and QR-code links, rather than on a domain the attacker registered.

Lures to watch for
- eBay says an address that contains "ebay" but isn't an official eBay domain is a sign of a phishing site.
- Buyer and seller questions arrive in eBay's own Messages. If an email asks you to pay or ship outside eBay, check Messages on ebay.com first.
Not sure about a link? Paste it into the free link checker. It reads the address only and doesn't open the page. The PhishClean browser extension also checks each page you open for signs of a fake sign-in form.
Questions
What is eBay's official login URL?
signin.ebay.com (eBay accounts (country sites such as ebay.co.uk use their own signin. address)). A real eBay address ends in ebay.com, ebay.co.uk, ebay.de or another domain the brand owns, read from the right of the hostname.
How do I report a fake eBay email or website?
Forward the email as an attachment to spoof@ebay.com.
Do fake eBay sites use eBay's name in the address?
In PhishTank's list of live phishing URLs on 5 November 2026, 0 of the 34 URLs labelled eBay (0%) had the brand's name in the hostname, so most gave no such clue. 94.1% used HTTPS, so a padlock proves nothing.
How we checked
- Sign-in addresses: opened on 9 November 2026 and followed through every redirect to where the sign-in page loads.
- Phishing numbers: PhishTank's online-valid list, downloaded 5 November 2026. Only URLs its volunteers labelled eBay count, and many fakes are labelled "Other", so these are a sample. We didn't open any of them. Data shared under CC BY-SA 2.5; method as in our phishing URL statistics.
- Example hostnames: hostnames in the whole list that contain "ebay" but aren't on eBay's domains, one per domain.
