I received a message from both Paypal and Itunes that I ordered $200+ worth of items that I did not authorize. When I try the link to cancel the order, it just sends me to GOOGLE!!!???!?!!! Very frustrating. I changed passwords, and Paypal says there is nothing on my account that I ordered anything..Confused and worried.

Why do you believe the emails were from PayPal?

Why did you click on a strange link in a strange email ?

What was the real email address (not the spoofed address) of the sender?

No way of knowing without knowing the details of the URL.  No way of knowing what information was collected.

The email address was <removed> which paypal is saying is a bogus email and so I had to alter the @  to at.

My guess is that was the spoofed address.

What email client are you using to look at the email address?

You may have to look the email header for details of the sender.

I have downloaded a few songs from Itunes,I used my Paypal debit card.

Somehow someone must have gotten hold of my email address and I get emails like I have bought this and that in Itunes shop or from APPLE,just an invoice,no payment .

I dont understand why APPL does not do something ,some of it even said it is from Indonesia?

if you cant find the transaction in your PAYPAL account,just report to spoof at paypal dot com.
