So, I placed two orders on June 6th and recieved receipts for both then this morning I got emails saying that my payment was declined because of insufficient funds but when I go online and check my transaction page it says payment confirmed. What is going on with this? Here is what the email looks like (I replaced the transaction idea with ???), I'm pretty sure it's not a scam, but who knows:   Hello <removed>, You recently attempted to transfer funds from your bank account. Your bank has declined the funds transfer because your account did not have sufficient funds available. We will automatically re-attempt this transfer in 3 business days. Please fund your bank account immediately to ensure this transaction can be completed. ----------------------------------- Transaction Details ----------------------------------- Transaction Type: Instant Transfer payment to teechip Transaction ID: ?????????????? Transaction Date: Jun 6, 2015 Transaction Amount: $25.98 USD Reason: Your bank reported a problem. Please contact your bank's customer service. If you still need assistance, you may contact us at https://www.paypal.com Sincerely, PayPal Operations ---------------------------------------------------------------- PROTECT YOUR PASSWORD NEVER give your password to anyone, including PayPal employees. Protect yourself against fraudulent websites by opening a new web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer or Firefox) and typing in the PayPal URL every time you log in to your account. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this email.
