I made an online purchase through PayPal. I lost $55.00. I received a number of emails regarding the status of the shipment which I assumed was legitimate. These emails came regularly from the time of my order which was at the end of February 2026. Today, I received a notice by text stating that the parcel could not be delivered and to contact the sender. I was suspicious so checked the internet for verification of the sender. This was when I realized that my purchase was probably a scam.

Email from PayPal saying Rocket Clothing Inc made a deposit of $.03 in my PayPal account. Never heard of this company and it sounded suspicious.

Note from Rocket Clothing Inc: quote You received this email because your PayPal account processed a payout by small deposit confirmation. If you authorized it, no action is needed. If not, please contact PayPal Customer Care at +1 (888) 338-0640 immediately to secure your account and request a refund. It was for $.03, I’m not familiar with Rocket Clothing and suspected scam; searched the "customer service" # provided, finding it associated with various scams.

The scammer deposited one penny in Philippines money into my paypal account. I was notified by a [email protected] email of suspicious activity. I logged into my paypal account and found the deposit, then disputed it on paypal. Paypal said the charge was authorized. I then contacted Paypal with the phone number (813) 495-5180 in the service@paypal email. They asked to be connected to my computer through an app. This seemed suspicious so I hung up, then deleted their app and shut down my computer. I notified PayPal and they said it was a scam... after they told me the charge was authorized. Unsure if the scammer was able to get into my PayPal account to send the message that the deposit was authorized or if it was actually authorized by PayPal.

Payout by small deposit confirmation from Paypal. I tried to contact them at [email protected] but they are holding my money. The total money lost is $0.0000. Their address is 2211 N. First Street, San Jose, CA 95131, USA.

- Mountain View, CA, USA • Mar 11, 2026

March 11, 2026 I received an email from Paypal, with a payment of $0.03 received from RLTY RUE. I believe the purpose is to confuse people, and get them to call this fake phone number, and give the scammer their paypal information.

The note from the vendor said:

"You received this email because your PayPal account processed a payout by small deposit confirmation. If you authorized it, no action is needed. If not, please contact PayPal Customer Care at +1 (888) 927-9710 immediately to secure your account and request a refund."

Copied from email:

“Set up your PayPal account profile

PayPal Billing Team added you to the New Billing Profile:We noticed a transaction of $735.20 charge at Gemini.com made from checking account with new billing profile. If unauthorized, Call PayPal at (805) 500-3248 to cancel. If correct, no action is needed. PayPal accept automatic pending bill from this account.

Your user ID: Customerxxxxx

Use this link to finish setting up your profile for this account. The link will expire in 24 hours.”

I received this email which is clearly a phishing scam pretending to be from PayPal (paypal.com). They are trying to scare me into calling their fake number by claiming a $735.20 charge. I know this is a scam because the email address it came from was [email protected], which is not how PayPal contacts customers. I did not lose any money, but they are trying to steal my information.
