View and Pay Invoice

Don't know this seller?

You can safely ignore this invoice if you're not buying anything from this seller. PayPal won't ask you to call or send texts to phone numbers in an invoice. We don't ask for your credentials or auto-debit money from your account against any invoices. Contact us if you're still not sure.

Reported to PayPal. B****y scammers.

Received one of these today. The subject line was "Reminder - You have paid an invoice". The body of the email says "Please pay your invoice" and in the seller not to the customer "...you sent a payment of $449.00 USD to Coinbase Corporation"

So, which is it; is my payment still due or have I already paid it? These guys really aren't that clever, are they? ;)

an anonymous user from: Boston, Massachusetts, United States

I just got an email but it doesn't say it's from paypal although it does say it will show up as "PayPal Coin Base". It's kind of funny b/c it says the totally amount is $899.99 but then in another place it lists it as $809.7. It gives a different phone number. 808-300-5117. Which I think is a HawaiI code.

This is the "address":

San Jose Street 12, 34567 CA

I got this same one in my Spam folder, exact same wording with PayPal's logo on 2/19/22! "Coinbase" & upwards of $800 being lied about. They'll keep going under new names...

I got one today too and when I called they asked for my name and when I didn't give them my name a heavy accented jerk tried to get loud with me. I told him off and hung up. This is a scam.
