Hello @gmailquestion13,
Thanks for visiting the Community.
I'm so sorry to hear that your email was hacked - that's definitely very concerning!
Are you still able to log in to your PayPal account at the moment? If so, I would suggest signing in to your PayPal account and changing the primary email address for your account and removing the compromised email after you confirm the new one. I also highly suggest changing your PayPal password once you change your email address.
If you're unable to sign in, please do give us a call so we can assist you with securing your account. You can reach us by selecting "Contact" at the bottom of any PayPal page.
I hope this helps and wish you luck!
-Megan S.
