Online auction giant eBay today said an undetermined number of its customers – buyers and sellers – around the world experienced “intermittent technical issues” that disrupted some of the $200-million-per-day transactions beginning at 12:01pm Sunday.
As of 10pm Monday, when most services were restored, eBay offered no explanation for the outage and did not respond to inquiries from San Jose Inside.
“The hacktivist group 313 Team (Islamic Cyber Resistance in Iraq) has claimed responsibility for a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack that has rendered critical platform services inoperable.”
