Yesterday and The day before have been a lot going on with my paypal account. Multiple Transactions where made using my account between these two days that were unauthorized and sent to random people through a service called Xcoins. I used Xcoins a couple months ago to purchase digital currency but didnt end up sticking with it since fee was like 15% of what you want. Now all the sudden 5 charges were made using my paypal credit account over $2000+. I filed a claim and i lost because of IP made to those purchases were made using other legitimate purchases that i made in the past. I purchased a malware protection service to get rid of any malware and ti was successful in getting rid of unwanted stuff but my real question is, How do i defend myself in this situation when nothing adds up right for me?

I only have 2 that are Ebay and Vultr (Web Server Provider) both have been linked for a couple years, neither of these were them. The payments were sent to 5 different emails. With random amounts. It would of had to been someone access to my computer/have access to my paypal details since used my account and same IP. This happened about 2 years ago same issue, same random accounts but was only around $1000 instead of $2000 and paypal decided it was authorized also. I suck it up because there was nothing i could do but now its double what it was last time and just lost of what i should do.
