I received an email from a PayPal email address about a recurring charge. I called the number which had an automated options menu that sounded like it was for PayPal. The person on the other end acted as customer support & asked me to share my screen while putting in money transfer attempts that all failed out as scams or had me send myself gift cards via email. He had me set up a Bitcoin Depot account & is trying to get me to make a transaction from a local depot with him on the phone.
