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

I received an email from PayPal stating they are trying to proceed with my payment and the amount will be debited within 12/24 hours. I have an invoice number and a phone number to call. I tried to call the number they had listed in the email but the phone is disconnected. I realize that someone has taken action on this fraud since the phone number is not working. I wanted to document my experience with this scam. This is the third email scam I have been a victim of in the last week!
