I got email from pay pal about new account. If it wasn't me to contact 1-888-462-1487 so I did. This man asked for my name ,email, home address and phone number. I gave him a work number not my personal. I did not give him my address. I kept telling him this was fraud. He then wanted access to my bank account. I knew this was fraud. He asked me if I was in front of my computer to log into my account. I hung up on him! Sincerely,

An email from Danielle Towe saying I had an unauthorized transaction pending with PayPal for a new iPhone.

- Roanoke, VA, USA

opened an email,

******* ****** ************************** Thinking it was someone from my one of my kids clubs, however, it was a paypal scam...I called the helpdesk number that was located on the email, the guy said his name was Allen Wilson, badge number AW78604, (but had a VERY foreign accent), I told him I was calling the ScamPulse.com to ask about this email and it they wergit, I would call back. He tried to keep me on the phone by saying "yes, you can do that, but if we do not clear this up now on your computer, you will lose your money." I again said that if this was legit, then I would call them back. Hung the phone up and looked up paypal phone number on internet and called them and they said that it was not a real email and to forward the email to [email protected] I am reporting it to you.

- Wichita, KS, USA

Received email from PayPal that $511.31 had been taken to buy Bitcoin and if the transaction was not accurate.I could get the money refunded in twelve hours. I called the number and spoke to A call center and completed a form for the refund which presented a transaction that they had deposited money into my checking account. Then I was informed. I had to complete a process of buying gift cards to reimburse them. For the overage that did not occur. As I went to the bank and the transaction was fraudulent, I could only see it on my laptop. It did not happen.

We've detected an unauthorized Coinbase transaction on your PayPal account. To ensure the security of your account and to receive a full refund, we urge you to contact our dedicated. I received 3 emails stating this. I called the number stated and they asked me for the ID #, which I didn't give and told them that I do not even have a Paypal account and then he hung up.

- Dayton, NV, USA

I received an email with my first and last name spelled correctly, attempting to send a fake pay pal invoice for 479$ for a laptop supposedly purchased on 11/20/2024. I have not purchased such an item and checked my accounts to ensure there has not been a debit in that amount. I did not call the number on the invoice as the invoice appears fake and has no account or purchase information on it. I am reporting this to warn others not to fall for this.
