Paypal account hacked (1 Viewer)

[mackle]

I just found out my paypal account has been hacked and some cunt has helped himself to $50 of my money. Anyone know if theres a way I can rectify this or have I just lost out and have to put it down to experience?

report it to paypal and hope

Yeh gonna do that. They detected that something was wrong somehow anyway and put my account in safe mode so that no money can be transferred.​

Wait - is this something you spotted yourself, or did you get an email from "paypal" telling you that something was up and containing a handy "please be clicking this link" button to log in?

I got the reciept that said the money had been taken out. I did also get an email from them saying my account had been hacked but I didnt click any links on it. I just went to paypal and logged in and all the information was there again saying that it had been hacked. Gonna shut down the account probably just to be safe​
