I keep getting a text message about receiving money. Not sure if it’s legit or not. It takes me to a page asking for private information. Is it legit? <removed>

Hi @Y2kjmaurill,
Thank you for your post! The link that was posted was removed for the safety of the community. If you receive a text message asking you to click a link to log in to your PayPal account, it should be treated with suspicion. If you ever have a doubt about the status of your account, the best thing to do is open a fresh browser without a link and type in PayPal.com and log in that way. If there are any problems, there will be messaging there.
I hope this helps!
Olivia
