I got a text about checking out. I have not made a purchase today. The text reads as follows: "PayPal: Thanks for checking out with PayPal. Reply "Y" to confirm we have the right mobile number for you. Msg & data rates may apply."
I didn't buy anything but my credit card was used on email fraudulently on Ebay. This credit card is not used in my PayPal or Ebay account.
How did the account match my credit card to my cell phone? Anyone have any ideas?
