Description

The email claimed to be a fraud alert from PayPal about a transaction of $958.57 to Gemini.com. It that wasn't by me, I was to call ###-###-#### to stop payment. The reference to Gemini.com and the phone number match other scam reports; the amount cited is nearly the same too. My PayPal account doesn't show such a transaction. The phone number in the email doesn't match any that PayPal discloses.
