Expert Opinion

If you get a call claiming to be from PayPal and they start asking for your email, card numbers or any personal details, hang up straight away. PayPal never requests sensitive info over the phone and they won’t ask you to verify a closed account. Always check the number against PayPal’s official contact list on their website, and if in doubt, call the genuine number yourself. Block the offending number and report it to PayPal’s fraud team and Action Fraud. Keeping your account passwords and two‑factor authentication active adds an extra layer of protection against these scams.
