eBay faces a $3 million settlement for the behavior of former employees who allegedly terrorized a couple who founded an online newsletter. The couple received packages of a bloody pig mask and live insects, as well as a book sent to David Steiner. The former eBay employees were involved in discarding and proactively disclosing evidence to avoid being linked to the case. The company has cooperated fully with law enforcement and strengthened its policies and procedures to prevent similar incidents in the future.
