My name is Jaime and when I logged into my PayPal app earlier I saw a request from someone for $80 even, which is weird. But I have no idea who this person is at all. Is there anything I should do so I won't have money sent to that request? I have never had this happen before.
Money requests are just that, a request for money. No money is taken out of your account unless you take action to pay it. You may cancel or archive it if the option is there. If you also received an email from PayPal re: the request, you may forward the email to phishing@paypal.com with a note that the request is unsolicited and may be from a dummy account.
