Fraudulent payments

I looked at my bank statement today and there were 4 separate transactions from PayPal. Ranging from £3.74 to £114.50. I haven't used PayPal in a few years and my bank account isn't registered on my PayPal account plus the debit card registered to the account expired a few years ago. So how is this possible and what do I do about getting my money back? Many thanks in advance.

When you buy items online and pay with a card then the seller can still 'process' your payment via paypal.

 

This is called buying as a 'guest buyer' and you don't log into a paypal account and do not know how the seller is processing your payment.
