This content is based on victim and potential victim accounts. Government agencies and legitimate business names and phone numbers are often used by scam artists to take advantage of people.
Description
Received an email from Paypal: "Account Message: Recently, $883.75 was logged with a new profile. If not yours, reach out at (805) 500-6214. If fine, you may ignore. Auto pending bill accepted from this account. Your New Account added you to the Crypto Wallet account. Use this link to finish setting up your profile for this account. The link will expire in 24 hours." I looked up the phone number and found the other scams with the same number on BBB. I will be deleting the email. Do not click that link or call that number.
