If this was from a scammer and the OP used a link in the e-mail to log into their account they just gave the scammer their user name and password. The scammer then could log into the OP's account and send a payment to their account or purchase merchandise. That is why I was wanting clarification on the initial notice they had money in their account. If it came from PayPal itself and there was actually money in their account some one should be looking for it pretty soon. I'm surprised PayPay ignored them. |

For me it was 100%. The owner of the home I rented here in Sept 2016 did as well as the owner of the home I rented Jan/Feb/Mar 2017 while looking for our own place here did and in fact requested it vs waiting for a check from us. It's a lot more prolific then you might imagine as funds are in your account within minutes. I'd bet quite a few who have rentals here do gladly accept it.

OF COURSE you would but once again the OP said IN HER ACCOUNT and nothing about EMAIL. Had it been an email with a link I agree with you 1000%. Too much assuming going on. I have been using PayPal (and eBay) since 1998 so I pretty much know it's ins and outs.

Thats correct. If you clicked the 'fake link' on the email you may have inadvertently given the scammer your PayPal user name and password. Got to www/Paypal.com yourself and change you password and security questions.

If I read your post correctly you said you tried to call PayPal. I have talked to them several times. Their number is 888-221-1161. Hope it works. God bless

If the funds are actually in your Paypal account, there will be a notification after you sign in to Paypal. Click on the details and on the next page will be a button to click on to refund the payment.

I'd bet it's a scam. I have used the Paypal resolution center to resolve a dispute with a vendor and the process worked just fine. Let Paypal handle this, I would advise to NOT be sending any money out to anyone on your own.

It sure sounds like a scam to me. But, if you have notified PayPal, I wouldn't do anything else.

The telling phase is pay pal did nothing. It’s got to be a scam, if legit PayPal would handle it
