Why do I keep getting emails to the old email account that was originally used with my Paypal account saying I have authorised a transaction to my Paypal account? I've had 3 in the last month.These are for different names and addresses which are in U.S. (I live in U.K) nothing has been taken from my Paypal account but are these just a mistake or a scam?

Sounds like spoofs, I get spoofs to email addresses that have never been linked to paypal.

Hi @Mena196,
Apologies for the delay, @kernowlass is right, these may be phishing emails. You should find all of the information you need on identifying phishing emails and how you can forward them to us so we can take a closer look here.
I hope this helps,
Siobhán
