PAYPAL IS UNSAFE NOW!

Someone used my email address, NOT THIS VERY ONE I AM USING to opened PayPal account and how the person verified the account without going through my email is alarming. The person is perfectly using this account and I am getting email from Paypal.


Right now, PayPal made scam activities easy on its platform as they shut down phone calls and even getting help from PayPal is not simple or rather straight forward now. There is no straight way to see email to reach out for emergency or phone numbers. I have been trying to get e-mail address to write Paypal and it is not bringing out e-mail. It is opening this url in new window https://www.paypal.com/smc/customer


This URL shows

The page isn’t redirecting properly

An error occurred during a connection to www.paypal.com.

This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.


Someone should tell Paypal to disable any account operating with the e-mail address, the owner of the e-mail which is do not have idea of such account and never confirmed the email.

I got a similar problem. Someone use my Paypal account with a different email address.

But I didn't receive any information about the transition in my email box.

The most ridiculous thing is that Paypal denied some transitions from the same merchant due to unauthorized transactions but not all of them.

And I file a dispute with Paypal, after around two weeks, the same conclusion. and Paypal refused to provide information with my Bank, where I filed a dispute as Paypal didn't pay attention to my dispute.
