Yesterday I received two emails from PayPal saying that I had paid two different companies using my PayPal Business Debit Mastercard. Then a few seconds later I received two emails saying that the transactions were declined because my balance was too low. The balance was actually sufficient for either one of the transactions but not both. I have never heard of either of these companies and certainly didn't make the purchases. I went to my account activity and the two attempted charges were there and had a Payment Status: Cancelled and a Payment Type: Authorization. I tried to report this in the Resolution Center but I got the message "We’re sorry, you can’t file a case on this type of transaction". Should I worry about these transactions and what should I do about them now? Any advice would be appreciated.
