My Paypal account was hacked early this morning. I have an unauthorized pending transfer on my account for $1,000.00 that is due to be transferred on September 21, 2020. How do I stop this from happening?

Hello @helpanoldwoman,
I'm sorry to hear you've run into some unrecognized activity on your account. If you need to report any unauthorized activity through your PayPal account, you can do so through our Resolution Center. Here's a great Help Center article that can guide you through that process: How do I report an unauthorized transaction or account activity?
If you do not see the transaction in your PayPal history, we recommend contacting your funding source to see what options you have to report that transaction.
Best wishes,
- Jon K
