Breached accounts have been used to scam people on the members market. Significant numbers of people continue to use the same username and passwords on all their accounts. Once one thing gets breached, everything is breached.

As there is no buyer protection on the MM, strong account security is needed.

It might not affect yours but it could affect others.

As @b0rn2sk8 says, we've had instances where accounts have been compromised due to people reusing passwords and they've posted on the MM. Fortunately, in each case, they've been very easy to spot and nothing bad has happened but if your account was compromised and another member was defrauded, how would you feel?

We take security seriously, especially when money is involved and enforcing 2FA along with the recent changes for continued activity as a pre-requisite for MM access should have removed the chance for this to happen.
