Just had 2 unrequested password recovery codes ping my phone. Logged in and removed all my cards to be safe. Is someone trying to hack me? I seem to be going in circles trying to contact someone at Paypal for next steps, not even a chatbot. Can anyone point me in the right direction pls?

Need to change your PayPal passwords. Also sweep your devices for viruses, etc. Delete browser cookies.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
