So its been about 7 weeks since this thread was started about Paypal Prenote. As mentioned in a previous reply, via the faq question at this link, Paypal makes it clear there are legitimate reasons why Paypal will issue a prenote. Of course that doesn't say there aren't fraudulent reasons that one could be issued as well so I am not specifically refuting that. I have the following follow-up questions. Has anyone seen fraudulent activity on their bank account after the Paypal prenote was issued? I personally have not. Has anyone seen a Prenote more than once on an account? The link referenced says that Paypal will issue these prenotes every 6-12 months and it appears that its only been a few weeks since this started so I would suspect not. As discussed in the link, if Paypal determines that the account for which a prenote was issues is inactive, they will send the Paypal account holder an email indicating that the inactive bank account has been unlinked from their paypal account. Has anyone received such an email?
