My father received an email from an unknown email address stating it was from Paypal. The email address was not familiar but they used my mother's name as their own. The Paypal statement showed there was charge for an item priced around $752.71 for some sort of finance company. My mother and father do not own a Paypal account. I checked Paypal to see if accounts were created using their email addresses; thankfully, there were no accounts created. I then called the number that was listed in the email to get more information about the charge. The phone number listed is a Texas number; however the company states it resides in Florida..The person on the phone sounded very suspicious. In addition to his suspicious tone, there was noise in the background (other people talking in the background). As soon as I heard this, I knew immediately it was a scam. I hung up and immediately contacted my parents' bank to make sure there was not a charge on their bank account. Thankfully, there was not.

I no longer have the email because I had blocked the recipient and deleted the message. Please be careful online! People can be so shady with scams nowadays.

I got an emailed invoice from PayPal stating that I purchased an iPhone and my Mastercard would be charged $799.99. I didn't purchase an iPhone and I don't have a PayPal account. I called the number in the email and I could hear a lot of voices in the background, I told them I think this is a scam and I hung up.

I received an email on 02/16/22 from a "Tracy" (no email address) and again on 02/24/22 from someone claiming to be PayPal, stating my order in the amount of $845.69 was on it's way. The address given for PayPal was 1522 Cohoe Ct., Kenai, Alaska 99611. I checked my PayPal account and did not see a charge so I chalked it up to a scam.

On 03/14/22 I received another email from an email address of "martha" again claiming to be PayPal, stating my order had shipped. It was for the same amount of $845.69 and had the same order number. The difference was it came from a different email with a different mailing address of 2211 North First Street, San Jose, CA 95131, and had a different phone number to call of 800-401-3024. However, the address shown for PayPal was the same.

Again, I checked my PayPal account and did not show any activity that matched this.

To go even further, on 02/25/22 I received an email from Marlita Rexa Lestari at [email protected] saying my PayPal account had been charged $749.99 and I was asked to call 800-397-6361 "to report and block this transaction". It was supposedly for the purchase of TCL 50" television.

On 01/27/22 I received two separate emails from different names (MOUSTAFA 420 and HAIDY 443) claiming to be PayPal and that I had authorized a payment of $649.99 for the purchase of a 43" television. I was asked to call 800-449-5908 "to report and block this transaction". They stated I paid the amount to [email protected].

I have checked my PayPal account each time and found no charges.

Scammer claimed charges were being put on my PayPal account. I do not have a PayPal account. They were charging me $720.00 on an invoice generated in Florida. Upon contacting the scammer, I realized that they were not legitimate because they were asking me questions pertaining to this PayPal account that I did not have. When I questioned the scammer with regard to the legitimacy of her business, she immediately hung up.

This person is phishing for information using Paypal they give you a website to put into your computer, and a security so they can hack into your information please do not enter the information. When I called the phone number on the invoice they gave me a website to enter and a security code, when I asked if he could see my computer he hung up the phone I did not enter any info into my computer. This is what the invoice looks like:

I got a call today saying that there was a fraudulent payment on my pay pal account. They said it was going to my bank account. My pay pal was never connected to my bank account, it was connected to a prepaid visa card. She said she was going to pay me tomorrow when I received an invoice from paypal. Now the email has disappeared.

Received notice that my PayPal account has been charge for exceeding e-pay usage limit with an amount of $949.99 USD and same will be automatically debited and reflected in account statement within the next 24 hours. The supposed purchase is a Sony 42" Bravia OLED 4 Smart TV.

I do not have a PayPal account and I did not purchase a TV on line. When contacting the phone number listed it was immediately answered. I was told the only way I could cancel the charge was to go to a computer and he would connect me to the BBB. I told him I thought this was a scam and was threatened with money charge to my account if I didn't follow this procedure.
