POS PAYPAL CHARGE

[ksonja]

Hi everyone,

so I received a text from my bank saying that I've been charged 1 dollar and it's coming from PayPal POS. I hadn't bought anything at that time, but I had been looking online. Anyone has a clue what this meant and why had I been charged a dollar? It says that the author is POS PayPal, it dones't say anything else like, for example, when you're buying on Ebay, it can say that author is POS PAYPAL EBAY. This just says POS PAYPAL.  Any idea what should I do? I don't really care about that dollar, I just want to know what happened and why exactly had I been charged.

Thanks in advance

You must've went far enough when "looking online" to trigger a temporary charge that validates your card with $1. It should be credited out within a few days.
