I came across your forum in a search. I've also had money taken from my account without permission. I'm not sure if it's connected to PayPal though. I noticed money missing from my account, when I looked at the details this is what it says on my statement...

FACEBOOK.COM*YWWW3  -£125.18

IRELAND

AMOUNT IN GBP 125.18 EXCH RATE 1.000 

Is this the sort of thing you guys have experienced? I've never given my card details to Facebook, or a company in Ireland! I use PayPal a lot though. I've reported it to the fraud dept at my bank. I'll let you know if I hear any thing back. By the way, I've already had the money refunded from Barclays and I only reported it this morning. Forget  about complaning to Facebook and PayPal, it will take forever - report it straight to the fraud dept at your bank and let  them and the police deal with it. You'll get your money back a lot quicker and get these c***s stopped (whoever they are)

Hi !!

I'm french so excuse me for my mistakes.

I have the same problem like you. 75€ * 2 debits on my account. I've deleted my card on paypal and i've open a dispute.

Paypal refound on my account the sum quickly. So it's ok now. But i ask them some explanations but i've got an automatic email without a truly answer.

I don't know if i put again my card on paypal because it's a real security problem !! Someone here, who had the same problem, have put again their credit card on paypal ? Do you have again some unauthorized debit since then ?

I buy on ebay and they want a paypal payement so i don't know what to do....

If i block facebook ireland on my bank, do you think this can resolve the problem ? I ask the same thing at paypal, no answer for the moment

You need to contact your bank and report the fraud on your account

You also need to change your password on your ebay and paypal accounts. When my account was hijacked to create payments to Facebook Ireland I also found that my Hotmail account had been hijacked (stupidly using same passwords for both!). Make sure you use different passwords for each.

Has anyone taken their computer for repairs before they were scammed? Just a thought.

I've never had mine repaired
