World Health Organization COVID Fund Invoice Scam

Hey world. Not sure if I'm the only one receiving this invoice but just got an invoice for $20.00 from something called the Respond Fund for World Solidarity from the World Health Organization.  Paypal won't let me dispute this invoice nor would I presume the WHO would send dubious invoices for donations through Paypal so I'm assuming it's a scam. Just curious if this is being sent out to others. Thanks!

Got it! Thank you. (The cancel button is kind of buried.)

I’ve got the same request for the same amount by the same person I’m trying to figure out how to refuse it and delete it

Hello, was anyone else charged $50 for COVID relief on 8/17? What is this charge and why is PayPal invoicing me?

@Smald843 You weren't charged anything. Its an invoice. Don't pay it. Read the thread.

My daughter received this as well - clearly a scam.  Dispute and alert PayPal

I received one today for $20 that does not allow me to cancel.  It says pending.  Anyone resolve this yet?

I am also unable to cancel and dispute this invoice. I did not authorize a donation to WHO and have not visited their website. Paypal help bot states that per user agreement a dispute is not possible.
