Phone number ☎️ 08003685312 👆 is reported as a phishing scam impersonating PayPal, involving fake emails about suspicious transactions and money requests. Users receive messages urging them to call a provided number to halt unauthorised payments, often citing large sums or gift card purchases. The contact number leads to untrustworthy call centres with foreign accents and poor service. Genuine PayPal advice is to avoid calling the number in the email, log in to PayPal directly via their official website to manage any requests, and delete suspicious messages. This scam appears to exploit email addresses obtained from social media or other sources, generating false alerts that may alarm recipients and encourage them to engage with fraudsters. Caution and verifying communications through official PayPal channels is strongly advised.

4 yearsIt's a fraudulent call, masquerading as if they're representing Paypal.Paypal4 yearsIt purports to be from PayPal, but I'm still uncertain about its legitimacy.PayPal4 yearsWatch out, this is one of those PayPal scams.PayPal4 yearsWatch out, got a dodgy call claiming to be from PayPal, total scam!PayPal4 yearsThere was some dodgy stuff going on with my account. I got a call asking me to pay £1499 because of some dark web issue. They kept telling me to ring a certain number right away. Totally felt like a Paypal scam.4 yearsI was wondering how PayPal had my email address when it’s not connected to my PayPal account at all. So I gave the number (+448003685312) a ring, and it was really noisy in the background with someone speaking with an East Asian accent on the other end. They asked for the email that got the suspicious message and then just hung up. Luckily, that email isn’t tied to PayPal but to my Facebook instead. Seems like these scammers probably stole my info from Facebook and are using it to try and scam others.PayPalFacebook4 yearsJust like others here, I got an email that said this: Bretyn Burton sent you a payment request NOTE FROM Bretyn Burton: quote ALERT! A SUSPICIOUS PAYMENT OF £1499.00 GBP TO THE DARK WEB HAS BEEN DETECTED IN YOUR ACCOUNT. TO CANCEL, CALL US STRAIGHT AWAY @ +44-800-368-5312 quote Payment request info Transaction ID U-6VB64135ED330221D Transaction date 10th December 2022 I rang the number, but it first had an automated US accent, then a bloke with an Indian accent answered. Definitely a scam, stay clear of it!Bretyn BurtonALERTDARK WEB4 yearsGot a few emails from PayPal, all using my name, saying someone asked for £499 worth of Boots vouchers. I didn’t bother calling any number they gave, instead logged into my actual PayPal account and saw the same payment requests there. Honestly, it’s kinda worrying me a bit.PayPal4 yearsGot a message about a £499 payment for Boots gift cards that’d supposedly gone through on my account. They told me to ring +44-800-368-5312 right away to cancel it. Feels just like those scams everyone’s talking about here. Definitely not trusting it!4 yearsReceived a money request saying it's from Amanda Mchale via PayPal on Saturday, 10th December 2022 at 07:07 GMT. The message claims there’s a payment of £549.77 to KASPERSKY ™ SECURITY that I supposedly didn't authorise. It says if I didn't make this payment, I should ring +44-800-368-5312 straight away. Here’s the transaction info they gave: ID: U-3TB09204WB538461X Date: 10 December 2022 Amount: £549.77 GBP The email has a ‘Pay Now’ button and some links to PayPal’s Help & Contact, Security, and Apps pages plus social media buttons for Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn. It warns you not to reply to the email and to use their contact page instead. It also mentions that legitimate PayPal emails always include your full name and advises watching out for phishing attempts. Got me wondering if it’s a scam or some phishing trick.Amanda MchaleKASPERSKYTwitterInstagramFacebookPayPal4 yearsGot a call from this number today too. There were about 10 requests for Boots Gift Card payments all coming from someone named Khirysha Coleman. So I called the number back. I logged directly into my Paypal account (didn’t click any links from the email) and sure enough, there were all the transactions just sitting there waiting to be approved. I looked up Paypal's official customer support numbers and this phone number wasn’t on their list anywhere.Boots Gift CardsKhirysha ColemanPayPal4 yearsFollowing up on what I mentioned earlier, a PayPal rep told me if you get one of those dodgy emails that look like they're from PayPal, just bin it straight away. They said PayPal takes care of sorting those scams out, so you shouldn’t ring any phone number that’s in the email.PayPal4 yearsGot an email supposedly from PayPal telling me to call this number. Seems like scammers are still managing to send fake PayPal messages without them doing much about it. Honestly, I don’t trust PayPal anymore and decided to close my account.PayPal4 yearsI got an email saying I’d received £350 through Paypal, but I never requested any payment. The message looked legit at first, but I didn’t click any links in it. Instead, I opened Paypal by typing the website straight into my browser. Thankfully, I was able to cancel the payment once I logged in. The phone number they gave in the email was obviously fake support. I really think Paypal should seriously do something about this because lots of people might easily get tricked. It’s mad that anyone can just ask for money by having your email and add fake details to make it look real.PayPal4 yearsI got an email just like the one described here asking for a payment of £1,499. At first, my husband and I thought it could be a scam, but seeing all your comments has really helped me feel sure about it. Thanks everyone for sharing!Submit Your Own Report (0800 368 5312)
