Hi @cyberbiker,
Thank you for your post!
I am sorry to hear what has happened. I do understand your concern with this. If you see multiple automatic payments from the same merchant on your PayPal account, this would mean the merchant has initiated separate payment profiles with you.
For example, if you make your first purchase with a merchant, they may sign you up for automatic payments with them. This means they can charge you for their services without you having to enter your details each time. Depending on the system the merchant has, if you initiate a second payment with the same merchant, they may sign you up for a second payment profile with them. This has personally happened to me before. This does not mean that you would be charged a subscription fee for each profile.
The best thing to do is cancel any duplicate automatic payments, or any you don't regularly use. This can be done by following the steps here.
I hope this helps!
