if you buy credit in any game go to your paypal account and log into your porfile, click on my money and then click on update in the my pre-approved section.  Update and click cancel to any agreenemts you have with a company so that they cant automatically use paypal.  When you load games and go I agree its giving them permission to transfer.

my sister has had this same problem and she doesn't even have a paypal accout! She does not use ebay paypal or anything like that. The only thing she has is a facebook profile! How has this been able to happen to her even if she does not have a paypal account at all! Her bank gave her a phone number to call paypal direct and even though she is in the UK she was transfered to someone in the USA. They are investigating it and should refund the money back within 30 days. Her bank will step in to resolve it if it has not been sorted within 30 days. Each transaction was for £25 and there have been about 8 of them this month so far!

Here is the fix.

 

This usually happens when you buy Zynga poker credits via Facebook.

 

You should  login to facebook account wich you used for purchace of Zynga poker credits  -> ACCOUNT -> ACCOUNT SETTINGS -> PAYMENTS -> PAYMENT METHOD -> and remove paypal details from bottom of page

sorry that was a goof! my sister does not even own a paypal account or play online games so it  looks like someone has possibly hacked her computer and got her bank details to set up a bogus paypal account.

This has also just happens to me. I have managed to stop one of the payments from my account but there is another three I have had to raise in the resolution centre. Has everyone got the mone back for these transactions or has this caused problems using paypal in the future.
