I have had a direct debit PayPal payment going out of my bank account in loads of different transactions. They don't show up on my PayPal just my bank and I haven't brought anything or done anything for this to happen. The account number and sort code it is coming from is this <removed> can help me with what this is as I have messaged PayPal and they haven't really helped me.
Check if you had a subscription set up... Click on the profile tab (icon next to log out) > Click on payments third option along on the thick blue band top of page > "manage pre-approved payments''.

Just wanted to add that I've had the exact same thing happen to me. My back is Nationwide (in the UK). I'm not sure if the perpetrators are targeting a particular Bank or not as the other messages don't say. Anyway I got onto my Bank, not PayPal, to cancel the Direct Debt and get my money back.
