A request for payment has appearded in my account. It lists the payee for 2 seperate amounts as Verizon. I did not request or authorize these payments. While it shows the requestor as Verizon, the payee information is an individual in Virginia. This is an attempt to fraud my account. What do I do about this? Thanks!

You can

1.  Forward to spoof@PayPal.om

2.  Then ignore.  There is no obligation to pay, so don't.
