You would need to post the exact steps you have taken, and when that error was presented. 

Couple of general things here.  Make sure that the time and date on the device that the authenticator is located is accurate.  Also, do not use any form of a VPN when trying to add a 2fa to google authenticator.  VPN's do not adjust system time or date to the destination region on the VPN app, as such, it will fail when your device generates a code, and the server generates a code based on your presented geolocation.  They will not match and your authentication will fail.

Oh, and one other thing, also check your day light savings time setting.  If your currently under DST, and DST on your system is set to "off" this will also cause the authentication process to fail.  My system defaults to DST on, and the region I live in does not use DST, as such everything was failing.  SO to clarify, make sure your system time and date and time zone and DST settings are accurate for your current location.  If they are not, correct and retry the 2fa addition to your PayPal account.
