E-Mail, I keep getting e-mails that show purchases from my account

They have tracking numbers etc. When I check my Paypal account I don't see any activity. This is the information on my latest one. As you can see this is not me but they use my e-mail. (note: it made me delete the address before posting this message)

I don't know how to report it. This is not the first one. It shows everything in the e-mail. All the items purchased, where it was purchased, tracking number, their mailing address. Both times it shows their e-mail as the same as mine

@StevePP

Are you buyer or seller?

You need to explain what really happened and what you expected.

I am not the seller or buyer. I keep getting invoices stating the purchase was made through paypal. It shows the buyer as having my email address. If its a scam I'm not sure how it works because it is not asking me for anything. I can forward the email to you.

What type of invoice are you receiving?

PayPal invoices are to REQUEST payment, not to show payment made.

Are there any transactions in your PayPal account?

You PayPayPal email address is not a private address so scammers can find it somewhere.

 

If you issue is only about what to do with a scam email, then just forward to spoof@PayPal.com
