The merchant did a temporary charge to check if your debit card is open or valid. Contact your bank card and report the suspicious activity since it shows there and not your PayPal account. PayPal's capacity in case is simply the payment processor for the merchant. The bank will contact PayPal in their investigation.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
