Hello all! Welcome to the PayPal Community Forum. I'm sorry to hear you're writing in today regarding some potential fraudulent activity.
@ificandream, I'm a bit confused about what you mean by deleting suspicious pending activity. Was there an invoice you received that you archived or an email you deleted? If so, you shouldn't need to take any more action there. I would just recommend possibly updating your password and security questions.
@Gigi-Anne, normally these unexpected subscriptions come from free trials and such. I would recommend reaching out to the merchant if you remember who they are for a refund. Otherwise, here's an article on Cancelling subscriptions and here's one on Reporting unauthorized activity.
Good luck to you both!
