Paypal Fraud - 08.19.2008, 08:05 AM

Does anyone know of someone or experienced any Paypal fraud .

I have been using Paypal for 6 years and it just happened to me as i was on this forum

I get the ocassional fake email and never respond to them and never give personal information over email so i don't know how they hacked my account ?

Luckily i was on this forum as i got email notifications of Paypal transactions , they were coming through every minute , four in total from the US , UK and Australia. Rang my banks fraud department asap and they cancelled the card . While i was on the phone to them another three transactions were attempted

Bank is sending me a out the fraud forms , issuing me a new card and will refund my money . I have contacted Paypal about unorthorised transactions . Have changed my Paypal password ( they got in once so i'm sure they can do it again )but this has left a bade taste in my mouth.

Don't know if i will use Paypal again , but the prob is i use Ebay alot and buy / sell on the RC forums , not to mention alot of online stores use Paypal now like RCM .
I get most of my gear from the US as most of it cannot be found in Australia
