Ebay sues Google over mobile payment plans

Ebay sues Google over mobile payment plans: "(Telecompaper) Ebay and PayPal sued Google and two executives for stealing trade secrets related to mobile payment systems. The two executives, Osama Bedier and Stephanie Tilenius, were formerly with PayPal and led the launch of Google's own mobile payment system in partnership with MasterCard, Citigroup and Sprint, Reuters reports. The eBay suit said Bedier worked for nine years at PayPal, most recently serving as vice president of platform, mobile and new ventures. He joined Google on 24 January this year. Tilenius was at eBay from 2001 to October 2009 and served as a consultant to the company until March 2010. The suit says Tilenius joined Google in February 2010 as vice president of e-commerce. Bedier is accused in the suit of having 'misappropriated PayPal trade secrets by disclosing them within Google and to major retailers.' The suit accused Tilenius of recruiting Bedier, thereby breaking a contractual agreement with eBay. It also claims Bedier attempted to recruit former colleagues still at PayPal. Ebay said PayPal and Google worked closely together for three years until this year on developing a commercial deal where PayPal would serve as a payment option for mobile application purchases on Google's Android phones. Bedier was the senior PayPal executive leading and finalizing negotiations with Google on Android during this period. Google spokesman Aaron Zamost said the company had not yet received a copy of the complaint and would not be able to comment until it has had a chance to review it. The suit was filed at Superior Court of the State of California, county of Santa Clara."
