Hello, I received some emails from PayPal earlier in relation to having set up a business account, which I didn’t do. Two of them were related to providing further information regarding the business account and one was confirming a new phone number had been added to my account. I didn’t see the email until an hour later. I immediately logged in and changed the password, as well as removing the phone number that wasn’t mine and a recently added address that was my address but in a different city. I’ve also removed any access I didn’t recognise, one lined up with the time of the emails. My correct phone number was still set as primary so any access codes etc were being sent to me. It doesn’t appear that any transactions have occurred in the time between the presumed unauthorised access and me changing my password. I now have a business account I don’t want or need which I can’t seem to close, I guess I’ll need to speak to customer services when they’re open, but I’m just wondering if there’s anything I’m missing regarding the fraudulent activity? What’s the scam here? Am I potentially at risk still? TIA
