PayPal Community

I’m frustrated have taken PayPal off my website at the busiest time of year over this and still no fix . The exact same Gmail type addresses were what I was getting . You don’t need to be a security expect to tell they are scam emails from a single glance Also in response to above . Just because the charge doesn’t go through that’s not the solution PayPal should say is the answer …..because as small businesses we have to wade through a lot of fake orders to pick out the real ones . We are finding stripe makes people go through recaptcha . If people want to use PayPal with us they need to purchase through another platform like eBay . We’re probably too small for anyone to bother looking at this . My other solution is to wait until the woocommerce plugin releases an update and hope that includes some controls Good luck everyone!!! ... View more

this is not happening with other payment methods as they have different security processes. ... View more

Good luck! I’ve detailed the problem and all I got was a long generic response telling me using the plug in means I’m responsible for security The fraud is bypassing something that captcha doesn’t work . ... View more

Disappointing. I won't be reinstating the app until I see some sort of action to stop it happening again. or some rules we can implement as sellers to reject payments for example if the email is a bunch of numbers and looks fake. All the fake orders I have are gmails with multiple numbers in the address. thats a flag in itself.  The criminals will move on is really not a comforting answer to this problem.  ... View more

Having the EXACT same issue in Australia .  Cancelling all PayPal integration until someone speaks to me. Surely this is something that needs to be patched ASAP.    ... View more
