Hi Folks. I'm an English-speaking Paypal user with a Spanish Paypal account. Early this morning 55 Euro was withdrawn from my linked account by Paypal apparently. I can't find any reference to it in the transactions on my Paypal account page. Has anyone got any ideas how it could happen?
Thanks in advance.

Hello @MourelosBooks,
Welcome to the PayPal Community!
I'm sorry to hear about the concern caused by the unrecognized transaction on your account. If the payment isn't showing on your PayPal Activity, it might have been processed as a guest checkout. I recommend reviewing your emails to see if you can find a receipt. I also suggest asking any family members and friends if they've used that account to buy something online recently. If you're unable to determine what the payment was for, please reach out to our Customer Support by selecting 'Contact' at the bottom of our website. Customer Support can help you file an unauthorized dispute on a guest checkout transaction. If it is determined to be unauthorized, you'll also want to alert your bank so they can issue you a new card or bank number. (Whichever was used for the transaction.)
I hope you're able to determine that the payment was authorized, and a dispute isn't needed!

Thanks Meghan. There isn't any email related to the transaction either, and no other person has access to the Paypal account.

Hi @MourelosBooks.
Thanks for that update and apologies for the delay. In that case, it's best to report the activity to your bank or card company to see what options are available from their end.
My apologies for any inconvenience this may present,

All my fault. I haven't realised that my paypal account was set to transfer funds from my bank account instead of my paypal funds, so although I sent someone money via paypal, it didn't show up on the transactions. I don't remember setting my bank account as primary source of payment, but whatever. The mystery is solved. Thanks for your help guys.
