4 yearsIt's a dodgy call centre, best to steer clear!4 yearsI just got an email not long ago linking this phone number, claiming to be from PayPal, alerting me about a dodgy transaction on my account. It screams scam! They wanted me to ring this number for assistance. Definitely something fishy going on here!PayPal4 yearsTelling PayPal or your phone company about scams doesn’t really help. The best thing to do is contact the police straight away. There’s info up above on how you can do that. Definitely worth doing!PayPal4 yearsTotal scam. I got a payment request from someone calling themselves ‘Karl’ but it was obviously made-up. Don’t hit that pay button - just block the sender on PayPal and cancel the whole payment. Stay safe!FRAUD ALERTKarl4 yearsBeware this is a fake Paypal call!PayPal4 yearsThis is definitely a PayPal phishing attempt. They might have already accessed your account, so I’d suggest getting in touch with the police via 101, and also calling your bank to let them know you suspect your account or cards have been hacked. From what I know, Bitdefender seems to be a genuine firm, so it could be a good idea to drop them a message and inform them that someone’s using their name to contact you.Bit Defender4 yearsHeads up, this number popped up when I got a dodgy message about a PayPal transaction. It looked like it was from their app customer support, but it was a scam. They even sent legit-seeming verification texts pretending to be PayPal. Be very careful!4 yearsGot a call from some scammer claiming I owed money on an iPhone 14 or whatever and to ring this number to sort it out. Total scam, no doubt about it. I’ve reported them to Paypal, though I doubt it’ll change much, and also flagged it with phishing.gov.uk just in case. Avoid these con artists!PayPal4 yearsI got an email from someone named Krystal Klass asking me to pay £599.99. I checked my PayPal from another laptop and saw the payment was hanging there waiting to be processed. I hit cancel on it, so fingers crossed it won't get taken. I’m going to ring PayPal first thing tomorrow just to be safe. Definitely not calling any number in that email - looks like a total scam.Krystal KlassPayPal4 yearsGot a message saying I owed £599.99 on PayPal, which looked legit with an email titled "You’ve got a money request" from PayPal. When I logged into my account, there was a pending request for that same amount under Recent Activity. The note said something like "You’ve sent a payment of £599.99 to Bit Defender LLC." It also had a number to call if I didn’t authorise it: +44-808-109-8782. Definitely suspicious and quite worrying!Bit Defender LLC4 yearsGot a message asking for money for an iPhone, and it turned out it was linked to a Paypal email scam. Quite dodgy!4 yearsWARNING: I got a message on my PayPal about a weird transaction on my Phone 14, and the number they gave was meant to be from PayPal - but it’s actually a scam. They try to get you to share your bank card info linked to your account. It feels like these fraudsters somehow managed to hack into PayPal itself. After logging in with two-factor authentication, I even saw the same number showing up in my PayPal app! It’s quite alarming. I didn’t share anything and just ended the call as soon as they started asking about my bank cards. Stay safe and don’t give out your details!WARNINGPayPal4 yearsI got a call from some people pretending to be from PayPal, saying there was an attempted transaction for an iPhone I never bought. They gave me this number and when I rang it back, the person on the other end said they were PayPal staff, even giving me some made-up employee ID. They began asking for my private info which was a red flag right away, so I just ended the call. After that, I went straight to the official PayPal site to report the whole thing. Pretty sure it was a scam, and the people behind it were from India.PayPalIndia4 yearsBeware, it was a paypal scam!4 yearsI got an email claiming to be from PayPal, but it was totally a scam. Watch out for stuff like this!PayPal4 yearsThis number kept calling me and it turned out to be some kind of PayPal scam. Be careful if you get a call from it!Submit Your Own Report (0808 109 8782)
