I've had emails from Paypal about someone attempting to set up recurring donations to our nonprofit. The attempts are usually unsuccessful. The amounts are small (like $2) and the person's name sounds like a made up Asian name.

I can't seem to find a way to contact Paypal about this and my suspicion that someone is attempting to use stolen credit cards where if successful with small amounts, the person could move on to larger purchases with other organizations.
