Got a text from PayPal with a link telling me they had noticed unusual activity and I needed to follow the link to restore full account access however when logging in to my account normally. Not using the link everything is fine there is nothing unusual. Is this possibly a scam ???? Is my account in danger of being hacked ?

If nothing happening with your account, then it's Spam, scam, or spoof. Change your password to be on the safe side and keep an closer eye on your account.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

I received the same message via email. link took me to a very sketchy looking non- Paypal web address.
Original message is not professionally written in some spots- SCAM. Time for a password change.
