HELP!.... I have had money taken from my Paypal ac...

Hello.  I have had money taken from my paypal account.  It totals nearly £1000.00.  I opened up a dispute because this payment had not been authorised by me but they have concluded it was NOT FRAUD.  They say it was in agreement to a contract.     It says it is for ebay fees, but I have not been selling?....  I have checked my ebay account and it is not showing up in the account.     I used to have another account which I have not used for about 6years.  This account was linked into paypal (which is what ebay want)...  The strange thing is I had a funny phone call about a month or two ago.  He said he was from Germany and he said he got some crystals from my ebay shop.  I said NO because I had not sold anything.  I quickly put the phone down because I believed it to be a dodgy phone call.  I am now wondering if this is perhaps linked to this missing money?  We have been getting a few calls from people, insurrance companies saying we have been envolved in an accident which is incorrect.     I am really worried now.  I have now changed my paypal password and ebay password.  I also took off my old e-mail address (which was what was used for the old ebay account) and put in a new one on paypal so at least I know I am getting the emails now.    I really dont know what to do because they Paypal are saying it is not a case of unauthorised payments (BUT IT IS)....  please help, I dont know what to do.   I never thought to do this but do you think I need to contact the police and explain all of this to them too?   HELP....  ...
