hello everyone,

 

yesterday 6 august at 22:06 dutch time i was gaming and i got a mail from paypal that €54,45 is payed to linkedin ireland on my smartphone outlook app.

 

So i how can i pay them while i was gaming? So i quit the game and checked my paypal to check out f its not a phising mail. Well i saw on my paypal that 54 was going to ireland. The mail was not a phising mail.

 

Stranges of this was that i saw that it payed for a webshop called linkedin ireland and the valuta was $59 USD!!! hey thats not correct, Ireland got the Euro so this is a fake so i cancel the payment. 

 

only how can they autorize this?

 

Can they still repeat this again even i cancelled the

If you have never done anything with LinkedIn or had your PyaPal affiliated with them then your account could be comprimised.

A good measure is to change your passwords on your account and email and make sure to change your security question also. Then maybe do a scan for malware, spyware and keyloggers on your PC that could of got your PayPal and email login information
