Jessica Miller

Could you please check your PayPal account and see if there any charges?

Customer Replay

I have and there arn't any.

Jessica Miller

So, I've just checked the PayPal forum and it seems, that you're not the only person who got a message from *****
It seems like it's a scam, and when you call the number listed in this message, they'll ask to install some kind of software to gain access to your device and withdraw all of your money
So, John, don't worry about this messages, there won't be any charges on your PayPal account
Also, don't call this number, as they'll try to convenience you that they're the "real" PayPal agent

Customer Replay

Thats why I didn't call it For 78yrs I am getting quite savvy . I will delete and report it. Thanks for your help.

Jessica Miller

I’m glad I was able to get that sorted out for you. Is there anything else I can assist you with today?

Customer Replay

No thankyou.
