I got this while watching the World Cup Final, it’s slick in that the email comes from PayPal. TotalAV have a note on that email with the contact number supposedly for PayPal and those who call that number are vulnerable. I suspected this note with a number and went to my PayPal account, took the contact number from there and spoke to a PayPal rep who assured me that cancelling the request would prevent a transaction. Now Xmas won’t be spoiled.

I have just received the same scam via a genuine PayPal email. I have declined the payment request in my account and forwarded the email to phishing@paypal.com.
I tried contacting PayPal via their messaging centre and via the official telephone system, but neither system seems to support this type of query or problem. Obviously a case of ‘account holder beware’.

I've had this today 18th Dec - a payment request in Paypal, that is a true request in Paypal - can see on app and on PayPal website, and Paypal Customer services verified. BUT it is a scam - I've not sent money, so this is a scam to try to get me to ring the number. I pressed decline in Paypal on this request. Paypal would not open a dispute as it is not an actual transaction, just a PayPal request.
