After answering the man spoke low and there was feedback like if another person was listening. He stated that I paid $200 or $300 and that to begin a refund process to get the money back. He mentioned of another person getting a refund and it was simple. I told him I don’t know about a PayPal account and he said maybe I had an account open. He tried to explain to do the refund but I told him I’m uncomfortable with the call

Received email titledPayPal - Support stating I sent a payment of $489.99 to InfoHub Computer Support. When I called to dispute charge, realized it was not PayPal because they were requesting I close current account and reopen another because hackers had accessed it. He said they could not do anything over the phone, that I had to have access to my computer. I was driving at the time so told them I would call back in about an hour. They called my cellphone 17 times before I got home. When I arrived home I called them back and I asked how any charges were approved to begin with since I have 2 step verification process, to which they replied, someone called in pretending to be you and gave info. They then informed me that there were two additional charges and one pending totaling over $1000. I kept requesting they just reverse the charges since it was not me, they kept insisting I close account and reopen one. As I was on phone with them I logged into my PayPal account and saw no such charges, and questioned them about that. To which they replied it takes several days to process. I asked how it could not yet be processed but yet they were willing to 'refund' the money. He then asked that I log on to anydesk.com. I refused saying I would not allow remote access to my computer. He started to become irate. I kept questioning who they were with, and he kept avoiding answering, just continuing demands. At which point, I informed him that I was calling the police and he hung up. The number that kept calling me was 805-953-7011

A few things here.

1. Paypal will never send you a bill from another service (Norton for example). These companies have paid subscriptions that are either monthly or annually billed and they have internal departments that would handle this.

2. This is coming from a gmail account not a paypal.com account

On face book it was listed as Malwarebytes free down load I did a down load and thought it was fine. Looking at my e-mails I discovered a company called Micro Tech Computer Security LLC associated with pay pal. They were going to charge me $245.97. I contacted the number provided and they did not answer the phone as paypal, sounded funny, asked me for purchase number, which I gave, then they wanted to access my computer, I refused. I then contacted pay pal who confirmed that I did not have an account with them as I told them that. Had contact with Malwarebytes who said they would do a scan to see if I was infected. Have not heard from them. Contacted my bank, does not show a charge, and contacted my credit card company, they confirmed no charge, I am receiveing these e-mails and I am concerned as Maywarebytes has not contacted me. I believe they are a scam and using pay pal as their back up assuming everyone has one, and or trying to access the computer on pretense that they will refund the charge, which I now know would give them access to everything that I have on it. Please check them out as I am very concerned. Thank you

I had a negative balance in my PayPal so I called them seeking to resolve this quickly. Looking back I definitely called the wrong number. I’m so exhausted with the whole thing now. The person on the other end answered as a PayPal and asked for my name and email address. The guy told me I needed to load 100 on a google play card and they need the code on the back to secure the account because it looked like more than one IP address logged into my PayPal account. Said that someone from South Dakota and Nebraska accessed my account. He kept asking if I shared my password with anyone else. I kept saying no. I also told him I don’t have the money to put on a google play card and he said that the money would be refunded and the negative balance will also be resolved. He also told me that PayPal was recently compromised which is why I see the negative balance. When I bought it and gave the code on the back he then transferred me to someone named Jason Trautman who said he is one of the Senior representatives for PayPal at the corporate office. He gave me an employee ID 14905 and the corporate address for PayPal. He told me I would need to get two more cards and give the “security code” on the back saying it’ll secure my PayPal account and no one else will to be able to access it again. Once is provided the last two numbers, I was put on hold for more than 20 mins and then the line disconnected and I could get an answer again.

Initially, I wanted to transfer Paypal funds to my bank. I searched for the customer service number on Google and chose the top searched number. A man was attending my call for 4 minutes and then the call dropped. I tried the number again and asked if the same person could help, but the call dropped again after 44 seconds.

A few minutes later I realized that I had 5 missed calls from the same number.

When I returned the call a man by the name of Leeroy Johnson attended my request, but he said that my paypal account was on hold since it was not verified. To verify my account and transfer my $232.74 to the bank he said that I had to match that amount. So, he asked me to purchase $250 worth of Google Play Cards from either Dollar General, Walgreens, or Walmart. Since I was fresh to the whole Paypal process, I went ahead and followed every single instruction. When I would buy the cards, he would ask me to give him the scratch-code in the back. Then he would say that the servers were not accepting some of the cards, so he would generate a refund-text-message to my phone saying that my money was refunded to my paypal account, which I was locked out of because he had already switched my password. However, I didn't realize that he had done so until everything happened.

After I told him that I had no more money to purchase cards, he said that a $2750 refund was ready to be sent from my paypal account for all the cards I had purchased, but that I had to pay $550 for taxes since it would be an overseas transaction. And that I would get refunded the $550 the next day.

Next, I called my sister to see if she could loan me the $550 for taxes, but my sister made me realize that it was a huge scam. She called another Paypal rep, and they said that their verification process did not involve buying Google Play Cards. She even spoke to the scammer, but he would reply to every question calmly and professionally as if he was a Paypal rep. We finally hung up the phone, but then he called twice until my sister said to stop calling.

He was on the phone with me for 4 hours, making me drive around different stores to buy Google Play Cards. I bought a total of 16 cards. I already closed my bank account and filed a police report. I have all the evidence. I will be pressing charges.

I was locked out of my PayPal account. I called a number from my google search that said PayPal official site. The FAKE PayPal representative told me that he needed a Google Play code in order to unlock my PayPal Account. He told me to go to the store and purchase a $75.00 Google Play card and give him the code on the back. when I did, he told me that the code did not work and purchase another card for $100. He had just took the money off the Google Play card that I just purchased for $75.00. I then realized I got scammed. When I called the FAKE PayPal number, he know my address, cell number, the accounts linked to my PayPal account. I thought he was legit.

I was waiting to receive a package. It was never received. I called Pay Pal. I got their number off the internet. I Googled their number 888-221-1161. They said there was confusion over who would receive the package. I needed to prove I was the receiver. They told me to get a Google Play card for $200 to authorize i was the receiver. I got the card. I called and gave the numbers off the back. They said it did not go thru. Told me to get another $100. two $100 cards. I called and gave the numbers. I lost $400. I reported this to Google. I also filed a police report. Google stated they would investigate.

I asked them questions about a PayPal feature, but they had no idea what I was talking about. It sounded like he was eating and there were people in the background. There was no automated system. They put me on hold several times and even pretended that the call was breaking up. The guy asked if they could call me back. He got my name and phone number from me before I realized that it was a scam.
