I too receive a letter demanding clearance of my outstanding PayPal debt. Funny really, as I don't even have a PayPal account. Oh well, they won’t be getting a Christmas card from me.

Got a letter today addressed to someone else, claiming I owe £116 to PayPal. Thing is, I don't even have a PayPal account. I rang the number on the letter and gave them the reference number, plus the name and address on it. They told me it was a mistake without really looking into it, and said I wouldn’t get any more messages. Barely had time to think when I got a text saying I owe money - no details or amount, just a suspicious link I definitely didn’t click. I reckon they’ll keep trying to scam me, so I’m bracing myself for more.

I recently got a letter addressed to me with my full name and address, claiming I owed PayPal £119. The weird thing is, I've never had a PayPal account! The letter had a phone number on it, 01482 484620, so I rang it. The bloke who answered wasn’t very clear and came across as quite unprofessional. He kept asking me for my email, but I refused to give it, as he said it was needed to sort things out. I warned him I’d report this to the police. I found out that the actual number for Wescot Services is 01482 484673 and that's the one I'll be ringing when they’re next open.

Like some folks here, I got a letter addressed to me but with a completely fake name (nothing like mine) from "Westcot" debt collectors claiming someone owes Paypal money and saying I need to pay up quick. I’ve already reported it to Action Fraud and also got in touch at [email protected] after verifying with the genuine company that uses a different contact number.

01482484620 On Saturday morning, I got a letter claiming to be from Wescot about a debt collection for £82 supposedly linked to Paypal. It felt totally dodgy. When I rang Paypal, they confirmed there was nothing wrong with my account. Strangely, the letter had my address but a bizarre name, “Chopper Bands,” on it. Honestly, these scams are everywhere now, it’s hard to trust anything at all. My first instinct with anything like this is to assume it’s fishy until I know for sure it isn’t.

I got a threatening letter saying I need to ring this number or they'll take more steps to chase me for a debt of £40.

Totally a scam! Someone called me saying I owed Paypal about £75. The woman said her name was Tania and gave me an employee ID of 10125. She even gave me a number to ring Paypal to check, but when I called it just went back to Wescot. Don’t fall for it, they’re just trying to steal your money.

Looks like a load of scammers pretending you owe money to PayPal, just to trick you into giving out your bank or PayPal details. Definitely don’t share any info with them!

Got a letter supposedly from Wescot Debt Collectors, but it's a total con. I looked up Wescot online and found their real contact number, which wasn’t the same as the one on the letter. Definitely a sneaky trick to rip people off. Stay alert!

Like many have pointed out already, I got a threatening letter claiming I owe some PayPal debt that doesn’t even exist. They got my address right but completely messed up the name. Just pure harassment. Seriously dodgy. No way I’m ringing them.

Like some others have said, I've been getting letters from Wescot but the name on them isn't ours. I returned the first couple marked 'no such person at this address' but got tired of it and peeked at the third one. They say it's about an unpaid PayPal debt of £32.82, which is strange since we've never even had a PayPal account. Definitely not ringing their number, no way.

A couple of days ago, we got a letter from Wescot Credit Services Ltd - some debt collection agency. The name on the letter wasn’t ours but it was sent to our address. They claim they’re collecting £20.53 for PayPal, but we definitely don’t owe anything to them or anyone else! This feels suspicious because about 10 years ago, we were flooded with all sorts of fake debts sent to our place. Maybe someone’s using our address for scams again. Do you think I should ring the number they gave, 01482 484620, and tell them they've got the wrong person?

Wescot is a legit debt collector working for Paypal. I got a couple letters from them after their first. The problem is, the person who owes the money to Paypal doesn’t live where I do. When I rang Wescot on their main contact number, they sorted it out and took my address off the record for that debt.

Got a letter from Wescot collections saying it’s for PayPal. The address was right but the name wasn’t mine. I don’t owe anything to PayPal though. They want me to ring 01482 484620 but I’m just going to ignore it.

Just to add on from my previous message on 03/02/2021, I got another letter this morning that messed up the addressee's name in the same way and had the wrong third line in the address again. The letter was pretty threatening, talking about my credit score and warning me that if I don’t get back to them, they’ll start calling, texting and sending more mail. It feels like they’re officially starting to harass me now.
