Default Paypal phone call this morning

Posted By: Hal Lewis

I got the call and it seemed very legit.

All they did was ask me to confirm that I had purchased an item for a certain amount from a certain vendor.

They did NOT ask for my account number or address or password or anything of that nature.

Clearly the person already had the information that they were asking me to confirm ... and I was careful NOT to volunteer anything else ...

so it seemed like a genuine "safety check" on PayPal's part.

Mine was a high-dollar item ... so I assume that was what sent up the flags for them. Maybe yours was too?
