Scam

I want to close my account because I am afraid that I just clicked on a scam and I am afraid they have my account information. The email I got sent me to epl.paypal-communication.com. I signed in to claim the offer, now I think I was scammed. How do I secure my account or how do I close my paypal account? When I tried to close my account PayPal would not allow me to because I have $0.07 in my account. I don't care about that tiny amount of money. I just want to protect my information. Can someone help me?

Change your password and security questions.

Anything else would depend on what information you gave away.

I would also inform your bank / card issuer so that they can keep an eye for any suspicious transactions.
