OK, obviously some sort of phishing attempt. Question is where are they getting our details from. It's not like you can SMS any random mobile number as assume they use PayPal. ... View more

Yeah, it's odd. I figure it was a phishing attempt. Although it might be another type of phone scam. But they'd need to know my number and that I use PayPal.   Unfortunately, the clowns here censor the comments so we can't even compare notes. Complete waste of time bothering, TBH.   ... View more

Who or what is TM-INFO and how did they get my number? ... View more
