Hi @AliShibaz,
I am really sorry to hear about your negative experience and I understand how this can be shocking. When you link and confirm your bank account to a PayPal account, we do not share your IBAN with anybody. The majority of unauthorised account access cases are a result of inadvertently providing account information, such as bank or credit card account numbers, on fake PayPal websites or in response to fake PayPal emails. It is also possible that if you have other accounts (email, eBay, etc.) that share the same password as your PayPal account. If one of those accounts was compromised, your PayPal account can be at risk of being compromised as well. If you receive an email and are unsure whether it is from PayPal, open a new web browser window and go to the PayPal website. Don't click on any link in an email which seems suspicious to you. If the email claims that there are issues with your account, log in to your PayPal account and check your Resolution Centre. Any account issues will be listed there. When using the PayPal service, always make sure the PayPal URL address listed at the top of the browser begins with 'https'. The 's' ensures that the website is secure. Even if the URL contains the word "PayPal," it may not be a PayPal webpage. If you think you have received a suspicious email, please forward that email to spoof@paypal.com and then delete the email from your mailbox. Never click any links or attachments in a suspicious email. To learn more about online safety, click the "Security" link near the bottom of any PayPal page.

I hope this helps.
