I am making this complaint because I received a 12/12/2020 “[email protected] 9:30 AM (11 hours ago)” email message from “PayPal”, and from my Trash notifications box stating that I had made a purchase of $449.99 which is false!
The said PayPal’s email details of the email appear below for easy reference. I checked my Activity page for PayPal Bills payments and my Bank accounts and found no trace of that $449.99 transaction. Since the following PayPal’s message indicates,
“This message seems dangerous…Similar messages were used to steal people’s personal information. Avoid clicking links, downloading attachments, or replying with personal information…Looks safe.”
Since I did not authorize PayPal to honor any bill payment transaction with Vision Computers llc., Besides, did not click links, downloading attachments, or replying with personal information and PayPal’s message claims “Looks safe”. Therefore, I believe that PayPal has identified the scam and already taken action on my behalf. I will not call the said “customer help desk Dial +1 (833) 219-5715” number as it could/maybe a dangerously suspicious line too that may have direct links with Vision Computers llc.! Besides. PayPal has already alerted, I should “avoid clicking links, downloading attachments, or replying with personal information.”
Submitted, please for your immediate attention and consideration.
Thank you in anticipation.
