Resolved unauthorised activity, but now wondering if I should close my account

I have used Paypal without problems for the last 10 years for modest Ebay purchases and sales as well as the odd charity donation - all without incident.

Yesterday I received an emaiol advising use of my account to purchase fuel from Shell in London ( 90 miles away!!). Not mine an i quered with PayPal and have received confirmation of a refund ( c£50 so not huge risk) - great so far.

I have changed my password.

 

But I don't know how it occured ?

What if I had not happened to log on and spotted it within minutes?

Does this mean someone has cloned a card with my details they can use in a filling station?

 

Ther is a link from my PayPal account to one of my bank accounts which I cannot cancel due to pending transactions.

 

Question - should I close my PayPal account now??

 

Any views welcome.
