Someone opened a fake account using an old email address. The supposed number to call at PayPal got me to a very convincing guy who needed to verify my location by either a network scan (not going to do that) or physical proof by having me go to a location and buy a Google Pay card for each disputed transaction?! Surely this is bogus and that the emails notifying me of the purchase via PayPal credit are bogus in the first place... along with the dispute resolution number they gave. I cant establish with PayPal if there really IS a fake account in my name. It is so hard to find anyone REAL with who to talk and resolve the issue. Any advice?
