![]() ![]() I noticed a charge on Friday night for $985.99. You know that you either didn’t conduct such a transaction with your Paypal account – or maybe you don’t have a Paypal account at all! But it’s ok, because almost certainly what it means is that someone with whom you did business – such as a merchant, or a seller, or maybe an eBay vendor – does have a Paypal account, and they have run your transaction through their Paypal account, even if you don’t have your own Paypal account. It may not be what you think, especially if what you think is that someone has hacked your bank account, or stolen your credit card. ![]() If you have been reviewing your bank records or credit card statement, and have found what you believe to be an unauthorized charge or charges that shows “Paypal” and the phone number 40, take a deep breath, and relax. You would think that by now Paypal would have gotten the message, but hey, they didn’t ask us.
