I rang PayPal straight away to check and they told me this number isn't theirs and they never ring up to ask for personal info like that. Total scam!PayPal5 yearsScam pretending to be PayPal business loan.Phoney5 yearsFraud alert!5 yearsDidn’t pick up cause my phone flagged it as 'possible scam'. They've called me like a million times. Had to block the number.5 yearsSo irritating.5 yearsIt's associated with PayPal.PayPal5 yearsdefinitely a scam, dont fall for it!5 yearsThey ring me and leave a voicemail claiming to be PayPal. They have my full name but never actually say what the call is regarding. I get 2 or 3 calls every single day for months now.PayPal5 yearsCould possibly be from PayPal.PayPal5 yearsI've been receiving persistent missed calls from this number, and I have a strong suspicion it's some sort of scam.5 yearsThis is definitely a scam - it’s NOT Paypal. Paypal never makes calls like this to their customers.PayPal6 yearsTotal scam! I told them to prove they were from PayPal and just got off the call straight away!PayPal6 yearsReal PayPal Working Capital team keeps ringing me up, insisting I set up a direct debit to clear my working capital because eBay has switched me to their managed payments system. They say I’m breaking the payment terms because of this, but I’m still paying 2.5 times more than the minimum required by the WC agreement. eBay is never brought up in my contract, and I hardly sell there anyway. My websites are still handling the daily payments for the WC, I’ve told them this multiple times and refused to set up the direct debit, but they just keep calling every single week.PayPal Working Capital6 yearsIt showed up as a potential spam call on my mobile, so I didn’t pick up. Just went ahead and blocked the number - can’t be too cautious, can you?6 yearsReceived a spam alert from this number, chose not to pick up and instead blocked it. Always best to err on the side of caution! Engaging with such calls might well lead to your number being marked as "active," which could open the floodgates to a barrage of additional nuisance callers. Stay vigilant!6 yearsCalled by paypal for something about working capital, seemed legit enough. They asked me to verify my email address. Just so you know!PayPal6 yearsGot a call from an unknown number and didn’t pick up as I didn’t know who it was. Decided to check the number here before calling back, and I’m happy I didn’t answer!6 yearsSomeone kept ringing my partner pretending to be from PayPal. They phoned a few times before he picked up. He doesn’t even have a PayPal account! I’m sure they said PayPal, but I really don’t believe it was legit.PayPal6 yearsThis number is a complete scam. They claimed to be from PayPal business loans, asked for my email, and tried to arrange a direct debit. Totally dodgy.PayPal6 yearsMight actually be PayPal, but cold calling and straight away asking to verify your email? That’s a red flag for me. Why would PayPal need you to confirm your email when they’d already have it on file? When I said I wasn’t comfortable giving out my email since they should know it, the caller said, “Well, do you want me to send you an email instead?” So one second they need my email, the next they can just send it without me confirming? Feels a bit all over the place. Just watch out. (It’s been an hour and still no email.)PayPal6 yearsHonestly, this seems like it's really from paypal.6 yearsLegit PayPal funding option here.PayPal6 yearsthis really is paypal, not some kind of scam.PayPal6 yearsGot a dodgy call asking for my PayPal info!
