Fraudulent payment to "Steve Armory"

If you have any further questions, please cal [Removed. Phone #s not permitted] Thank you for doing business with us.

The PayPal "Statement" shows only money I have spent somewhere.  It does not show any incoming payments I have made to offset those payments.  Most bank statements show charges (outgo) and payments against those charges (income).  How can I see whether PayPal has received the payments I have made on my account to offset the charges? ...
