Yep, same here. Paypal did nothing except say they are looking into it and can't cancel the transaction on their end.

I removed all my bank/credit card accounts from my PayPal account and will use other services from now on. I don't trust PayPal anymore.

I received this response from customer service: "I understand this is a serious matter. Thank your for bringing this to our attention. We are aware of this ongoing issue. I have escalated this for you and our engineers will look into this since there is money involved. Rest assured that they will be prioritizing this as soon as possible and you will be getting an email once there is a result." If you haven't yet, contact them thru the Message Center so they are aware this is affecting more and more accounts.

I'm glad I found this thread. Exact same thing happened to me this morning.
