Phone number ☎️ 08003686158 👆 is reported as associated with a sophisticated PayPal phishing scam involving fraudulent requests for large payments linked to Decathlon vouchers. Users have received emails urging them to contact the number for unauthorised transactions, but these are scams designed to gain access to accounts.

Got a PayPal payment alert saying Victor Merrill wants £649.99 for some Decathlon gift cards. Seems fishy to me.

Got a call from someone claiming to be Kaspersky Security about a payment that supposedly didn't go through with PayPal - total scam! I went straight to the PayPal site, cancelled the transaction, and reported it. Definitely be careful with calls like that!

Just got an email here in Poland asking me to pay something for Decathlon in the UK. Feels like a total scam to me.

Had a dodgy call the other day pretending to be from Amazon and PayPal, trying to pull some kind of scam. Really sneaky stuff. Just a heads up to everyone to be careful with any suspicious calls claiming to be from them!

I got this email from a woman named Patricia - can't remember her last name because I’ve since blocked and deleted the address. The email claimed £649 had been taken from my account for Decathlon vouchers and told me to ring a certain number if I hadn’t made the purchase. I checked my bank, and no money had been taken. I logged into PayPal, spotted the suspicious request, and cancelled it straight away. I’ve been having trouble recently logging into PayPal because the usual code they send rarely arrives on time, and sometimes not at all. When that happens, I have to pay with my card instead, which defeats the point of two-factor security. Honestly, this scam email this morning was the last straw, so I finally shut my PayPal down. Since I barely kept money in my account anyway and only used PayPal for buying stuff, it made sense. After sorting out the login hassle with PayPal, I cancelled the fraud request and deleted my account immediately. The thing is, the scam is clever because when you log in, you see the exact details from the phishing email, which might trick people into calling the number they give. PLEASE don’t call or click any links; you risk losing access to your account and letting scammers take over. I raised my concerns with PayPal at the end of the call because if scammers can show that info on your account, their security is pretty weak. I shudder to think how many have been scammed and lost money. The trouble with missing authentication codes was annoying enough, but this phishing email pushed me to finally give up on PayPal. Stay cautious out there!
