3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with O2, but definitely wasn’t them - sounded like it was from abroad.3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from "Nationwide." They spoke English and seemed pretty believable, but it was clear they were fishing for my bank details. Definitely not a genuine call.3 yearsGot a call from someone fishing for my bank details, sounded like a classic scam.3 yearsGot a call from this number pretending to be the fraud squad, but it's just a total scam. Definitely don’t trust it.3 yearsClaimed they were with the fraud squad and rang my bank about the call, yet nobody from the bank had attempted to contact me at all.3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with the fraud squad. I rang my bank afterwards and they told me they hadn’t made any calls to me.4 yearsBeware of this number - it’s definitely a scam. I got a message saying there was a “fraudulent Argos gift card purchase” on my real PayPal account and they wanted nearly £900. The phone number was in the email they sent, and as soon as I saw it, I knew it was dodgy. Don’t ever call it!PayPal4 yearsTotal scam, watch out!4 yearsThe phone number 800-368-9763 is connected to bogus PayPal invoice scams. You'll receive emails that look like they're from PayPal but with fake bills and phoney account information. The message may warn you that the transaction seems suspicious and ask you to ring +44-800-368-9763 to report it. When you call, an operator picks up and tries to get you to let them connect to your computer remotely. Most likely, this is a trick to install malware or a keylogger on your machine to steal your bank details and other sensitive info.PayPal4 yearsThis happened to me as well. Got an email pretending to be from PayPal saying there was a dodgy charge of more than £800 on my account. They’d somehow got into my account and showed all my latest transactions. They asked for my complete bank details, but I didn’t fall for it. I rang PayPal myself and managed to stop the payment in time. Total scammers, so watch out!PayPal4 yearsSo I got a message on my PayPal app from someone called 'Mark Frawley' asking me to pay £890. The message said something like "FRAUDULENT TRANSACTION FOUND IN YOUR ACCOUNT OF £890. 00 GBP, TO STOP OR CANCEL THIS AMOUNT CALL US IMMEDIATELY @ +44-800-368-9763". At first I nearly rang the number thinking it was a legit PayPal warning! Luckily, I blocked him and cancelled the request straight away. It turns out the scammer put that fake message in to trick me into calling them. Just a heads up - always double-check numbers by googling before you pick up! These scammers are really sneaky.PayPalMark FrawleyMarkGOOGLE4 yearsJust dealt with the exact same thing. I refused to pay, blocked the number and reported it straight away. Still, I’m worried others might fall for this trick. Watch out, everyone.4 yearsI got hit by a PayPal scam recently. It looked so genuine, I almost got fooled! They even had my full name, which I only share with a handful of people. It’s mad how these creeps manage to get hold of such private info. Honestly, I wish there was some way to just wipe these scammers out completely.4 yearsGot a voicemail about a PayPal payment for £349.87 saying "You've just paid £349.87 to ESET NOD32. If this wasn’t you, ring PayPal Customer Service on +44-800-368-9763." Seems dodgy to me, probably spam. I’m going to report it to PayPal and just ignore the whole thing.PayPal4 yearsI got this dodgy call about a PayPal payment, something over 800 quid. I’m not bothering to ring anyone back, just gonna report it straight to PayPal.4 yearsThis happened to me too and I saw it pop up in my paypal. Looks like they’re messing about with the ‘request money’ feature and adding their own message. The email comes from paypal for real, but that message part isn’t from them - it’s just whatever the scammer typed in the note section of the request, which paypal just forwards in the email.PayPal4 yearsGot a message saying "Payment of £349.87 to ESET NOD32 completed. If you didn't make this transaction, ring PayPal Customer Service at +44-800-368-9763." Nearly dialled the number until I twigged it was a scam. Told PayPal about it but couldn't work out how to block that number.PayPal Customer SupportPayPal4 yearsToday I got an email from 'PayPal' saying I owed about £800 and that there was some fraud going on with my account. I was pretty stunned at first, but I quickly logged into my PayPal for real and refused the charge. The message included a phone number to call about the fraud, and I can’t believe how many others have been bothered by this the very same day. Make sure you don’t accept any dodgy payments and report anyone responsible so PayPal can sort this mess out.Paypal4 yearsGot an email saying I had to pay them some money, like a payment request. Checked my account on my own just to be sure and there was nothing like that. So I just deleted the email straight away. Definitely a scam.4 yearsI got a message saying I was scammed and to ring this number about a PayPal payment I supposedly received. Don’t bother calling it! Just ignore and reject that payment request, then let PayPal know. Always access your PayPal by typing the website yourself, never through links in messages.PayPalSubmit Your Own Report (0800 368 9763)
