Received an email that my account was hacked. Called in spoke with David, was asked to rectify it by buying 2 google play cards. Was defrauded by a 3rd party and bought 2 iTunes cards of 100$ Spoke once again with David, and bought the google cards 2x100$ . Now out 400$ spoke with Abby and he wants an extra 200$ card because of protocol.....serious? This is ridiculous! I'm told...trust them and do I believe in God! Super peeved right now.

You should always scroll down to help / contact bottom of paypal pages and use the phone option listed on their site.
