Sorry, but I disagree that the reply by kernowlassn is a solution. This was a legitimate email from PayPal, by a fraudulent invoicer, as I wrote in my above post. This was not a spoof. Further, there is no solution on how to report this to PayPal. ... View more

Thanks for your replies.   I believe this was a genuine E-mail from Paypal. What I'm reading on the reddit is that the fraud part is the invoice. They are using PayPal's system of sending invoices to send a fraudulent invoice, with a malicious phone number to call if there are questions.   I used the Paypal website entered in by myself to confirm I saw this invoice in activity. Unfortunately, Paypal did not let me dispute it. However, I could cancel the invoice, which I did. But I did this on the Paypal website, not on the E-mail, which only had the link to View the invoice.    It's just unfortunate that Paypal doesn't have a way I can report it to them.   Here's the link to the Reddit thread that explained it:[removed] ...

I have a PayPal invoice that says "A Payment of $1449.00 has been debited from your bank account for purchasing an iPhone 13 pro max. This charge amount will be displayed on the account statement as a payment to "ETECPAY". Please Contact us if you have any question for this order. Call Our Support Number [Removed. Phone #s not permitted] Also, We have attached an invoice of $49.99 for the service of iPhone. Which you have already taken from us. Thankyou for your Business."   I got it as an e-mail. Suspicious it was phishing, I logged into PayPal myself. I have an incredibly long password with 2-factor authentication. That's where I found this $49.99 invoice from PayPal for a VAT charge with this note. No one in my household has made this purchase. I tried to report it as fraud, but Paypal said it was unavailable for this type of transaction. What do I do? I'm quite scared on this. ... View more
