Hello. 
I am Paypal user for many years and I use non-gmail address to log in to Paypal. I am also owner of Gmail accout with username formatted like [Removed]- but I do not use it for Paypal. Now, from time to time I receive an email from Paypal because some other user created an Paypal account with [Removed] Difference is my email has a dot after N, this other user email is without a dot. Gmail do not recognize dots in user names, so both addresses are basically the same address for Gmail. Paypal however seems to recognise the difference, and in effect all emails directed to this other user goes to my inbox. I tried to report it, but Paypal do everything in his power to dissuade users from contact. And idea what can i do to resolve this problem?
