Two former high-level security executives at eBay, including James Baugh, former Senior Director of Safety & Security, and David Harville, former Director of Global Resiliency, have been sentenced to prison for their roles in a physical and cyberstalking campaign targeting the editor and publisher of a newsletter that eBay executives viewed as critical of the company.
In August 2019, Harville, Baugh and five co-conspirators at eBay agreed to engage in a harassment campaign targeting a husband and wife in Natick, Massachusetts for their roles in publishing a newsletter that reported on issues of interest to eBay sellers.
