Hi. Can anyone offer advice? I got a text (addressed correctly) purportedly from Paypal, saying that my account was about to be suspended. With a link to click on to avoid that. Thought it was an obvious scam, so ignored it.
But now, I can't access Paypal via eBay - the option has disappeared. So: was the text genuine & I should have taken action? Or has eBay removed access to Paypal accounts via their site?
Apologies: I'm an oldie who's pretty computer-savvy, but sometimes the pace of change gets me a bit confused....

Just login to your Paypal account and it will say. Or the app if you have a smartphone or tablet.
You were wise not to click on the link. Hope the text is from a scammer, not Paypal.
