My PayPal account was compromised
My PayPal account was compromised, S250.00 taken from my Credit/Debit/Checking account.
Someone from Ireland, via Facebook went through PayPal, without my knowledge.
I contacted PayPal I was assured matter would be reversed. Transaction caused my bank account to be overdrawn.
It took calls and assurance on their part. Matter would be handled 4-10 days lapsed. Matter reversed, I paid outstanding due debt via Ebay purchases, and routed $180.00 back into Bank Visa/Debt/Checking account.
To date PayPal account is limited. There has been great deal of hours put into clearing/resolving situation that was not to have gotten to this point.
I was told in the first phase, my first contact with representative, she made a mistake. That wasn’t my problem, I’d been guaranteed problem would be taken care of in a few hours; equaled days and negative interactions.
Passwords and account numbers have been changed at the banking institution and password at PayPal and Ebay has been changed also. I can assume my account was not as secure, as PayPal has been telling me over the years. This is my first negative encounter, yet it has been negative. And I lo longer trust PayPal with my money.
Having same dispute with paypal and Facebook right now with company in Ireland, fingers crossed
