I've had an unauthorized transaction in my PayPal account, on Friday morning, 11/30/2018, I've received a bunch of spam emails about the transaction, then I've checked my PayPal account activity, then saw that $2000 was withdrawn from my bank account associated with PayPal. And at that time I've had about $1000 in my bank account, so because of this unauthorized PayPal transaction, I now have a negative balance in my bank account, because this unauthorized transaction is pending in my bank account activity, and so I can't access my money now. I've emailed PayPal yesterday morning regarding this issue, and asked to cancel this transaction but haven't received any response. It's a terrible situation. The PayPal transaction ID is 8X729353SA158714X. Please resolve the situation immediately.

Click on the transaction in your paypal account and use the 'report a problem' link at the bottom to report it as unauthorised if that is what it was.
I hope you changed your password and security questions?
I hope you ran a virus scan on your computer?
I would also be telling my card issuers and bank accounts company that the account was hacked so that they can keep an eye on your account OR remove the financial info involved until things are sorted.
Also tell your bank asap as they can probably stop the pending transfer.
Also phone customer services......
Click on the words "Help / Contact" at the bottom of paypals pages and use the phone option in the blue band at the top OR very bottom of page dependent on what country you are in. Scroll down past the list of help questions and click on 'Call us' bottom of that page. Log in and get the code.

You can't dispute it as its still pending.
Unlikely it will go through, more likely it will time out 30 days post payment.
