If you suspect unauthorized activity, contact us immediately PayPal at +1-888-511-6389 .PayPal is always committed to preventing fraudulent Charge. invited you as a developer” i opened the email, at the very top of the email it says “hi, [email protected]” it looked similar to a paypal email for a fraudulent charges but the font was really big and some sentences didn’t make since. it was a email asking if i attempted to make a purchase for an iphone 16 for $965. it also says i have an invite to from paypal security *eyeroll* when i scrolled down before the “log in to your account” button it’s say “ready to get coding? log in to your paypal account to review the invite” if i was older “im 32” i definitely would have thought it was a real email.
