So I'm relinking my bank account to my PayPal account, and when my Online banking app asks for confirmation, it says there's a sign-in attempt "near redwood California", even though I do not live in the states. I've tried twice now and am hesitant to accept. Is this location referencing the location of PayPal's servers/headquarters, or is something else going on?
I understand that this may be something I should ask my bank about rather than PayPal, but I figured it might be worth a shot to see if this happens with anyone else.

I had the same issue happen to me. I searched up where the PayPal headquarters are located in California and it’s not in Redwood. I was hesitant to accept but I needed my bank to be linked so I accepted and then changed my password. Since it’s happened to you too I would assume it’s normal? I don’t know
