If so log into PayPay at their website and see what is actually in your account, definately change the password to your PayPal account, right away.

No it did not. I received an email from the sender that it was the rent and to let them know when I received it. I went to my account and there it was. Took 5 days to clear and is still there. When I tried to resolve it PP said I couldn't and to get in touch with the send which I have tried to do to no avail

PayPal charged my acct for a substantial amount of money . I stopped them because they refused to do anything. Thankfully my credit card company stopped he payment. I don’t trust them at all

I could see how someone could pay the wrong account through PayPal. When you are paying, you start typing the email address and you get an autofill menu of matching names to select. If you click the wrong one and send the payment, you've just paid the wrong person. However, for this to happen, this person would have had to have paid you previously for something. OP, have you ever received a payment from this person before?
