Yesterday I had an email from Paypal about how to reset my password. I thought this was odd as I had not logged in. When I got home from work, I checked my account and have found that someone called James Carroll has deposited £800 and then made 14 wire transfers from the account. I also found 'he' had attempted to link in an HSBC bank account. I have reset my security settings and reported all the transactions with their ID numbers except the deposit which PayPal does not appear to recognise. I have also emailed PayPal but not heard anything and made three phone calls today within 'opening hours' but am continually getting a message saying the office is closed. I realise it is the weekend but when I have had problems before, have had a quick response.
Can someone from PayPal PLEASE respond? I am very ill at the moment and the stress of all this is making me so much worse. I don't know how this has happened as I am always very security conscious. Could someone have hacked into my eBay account? HELP PLEASE..........
When my friend/neighbor came home with me on the bus today, he said that his PayPal had been hacked, at first I thought he was joking, but he explained that when the bill me later bill came, it turns out someone had charged $1000 on his PayPal! It wasn't a client side privacy issue, I can be sure of that, but he changed all his account information and scanned his computer just in case, all we can do is hope that this doesn't happen again. 😞
Same goes for me. About 900 dollars was taken out of my bank today 1-17-17 and I would please like some help of retrieving it back. Please anyone in PayPal help. I want to get this back and I would want to close my PayPal account along with my prison informationso.
