THERE IS NTOING more antagonistic than needing to call thsi company and i keep getting an error message and not routed to the phoen number anyone have paypal's phone number?
i got an email wtih a ton of links, claiming my account had limited access, my cc cards were expired etc. i know that is **bleep**.
i logged in and got routed to a place to put in my credti card info and DID NOT
then it seemed like i was going in cirlces and got to paypal.
but EACH TIME i try to call, i get routed to a bad page
pleae what is the phone number? i am not taking money using paypal until i talk to someone. i know yes there is a lot of fishing and etc. but i want to know was someone trying to log into my account? they can tell if someone not from my ip has done that and i bloody well want to know.
tjhis crap with the not getting to call them is a problem. nobody can do b usiness like that.

If you'l log into your account, look on the top right of the page , click on security link. at the bottom of the page you'll see another link "contact us" when you click on this it opens to another page with a security number and the phone number. Just have the security number ready when you call. I hope this helps.

The email you got was almost certainly a phishing email. If you entered any credit card information, you need to cancel those credit cards immediately as they have just been stolen. Forward any emails like that to spoof(at)paypal(dot)com, and since you've already fallen for this one, you'll need to change your Paypal password as well. If I were you I'd also get a credit report to see how far the identity theft has gone.
Be careful when entering personal information online! And never, EVER enter personal information in response to an email, no matter who they claim to be emailing from, and never enter personal information into a site you get to from clicking a link in an email -- always open a new tab and go to the Paypal site directly.
