I received an email today that my address was changed at 6:18 a.m. but I did not change it. It was changed to a women who lives in Australia. I went into my Paypal account and it still shows my address and name. I don't know if the email is a scam, as it looks official from Paypal. I don't want to click on the link it tells me to click on to confirm my new address if it's a scam.
Has anyone else received an address change email from Paypal?
I had this happen as well, about 2 weeks ago. I notified PayPal immediately that i did not authorize the change, and reveived no response from them. Since then, $450+ was taken from my account. I'm in the middle of a dispute with PayPal. I hope the same doesnt happen to you!
