How did you fix this issue? I believe someone set up a paypal account using the same email as mine, but without the dot in between my first and last names, and now I have an email to the non-dot version saying that it will be charged, when I have my own account that I use regularly.

Hello @Staninator
Thank you for writing in the PayPal Help Community and welcome! I completely understand your concern here! There are some email providers that does not ignore dots in the addresses ad most emails cannot tell the difference between email with and without dots, due to which you may be receiving the notifications for a similar email address. I would suggest you to check with the email provider to look into this further.
Regards,
Bindu
