Sorry @PayPal_Tricia but nope. Doesn't work. This is a serious issue YOUR developers MUST address. It's a frequently asked question in r/techsupport, r/PayPal, r/Venmo and r/Android on Reddit but this supposedly canned response from a moderator doesn't solve it. I have searched Google and Reddit has a LOT of posts about this but PayPal Community only has one result in Google and it is to the German PayPal Community... And this is the only post found here. Reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/paypal/comments/q5koht/people_with_paypalvenmo_finding_self_restoring/ It's a 36 byte file. The extension (.BIN.PNG, bin meaning binary image/core dump, and png is a graphics file) reeks highly of malware. Anyone who remembers the ILOVEYOU virus of the 1990s had an attachment with .doc.vbs (The last part was hidden by Windows), a self-executing Visual Basic script.... Remember that when developing. Please pass this to your developers. But the "tip" offered by "@PayPal_Tricia" is useless. The Reddit post has a LOT of concerned users.
