A scammer posing as a Paypal representative contacted me, claiming that a $750 transaction had been made from my account to someone in LA, California.
PayPal Scam Alert: Fake $750 Charge!
Summary — +61488350305
Expert Opinion
Scammers impersonating PayPal have spiked lately, preying on users' fears of unauthorized transactions. These fraudsters often possess bits of personal info like emails and numbers, scraped from data breaches, to sound legit. In this case, the fake $750 charge to LA was a classic hook to panic you into sharing more details or clicking links. Hang up immediately if you spot red flags like unsolicited urgent alerts—never verify account info over the phone. Report to PayPal directly via their app or site, and block the number. Enable two-factor authentication and monitor your statements to stay safe. Real companies won't demand immediate action this way.
