Fraud

I recently contacted PayPal and a gentleman who answered informed me that there was suspicious activity on my account but then he asked for my bank name and investments and I became suspicious.  He claimed he was with PayPal Fraud Investigation and his name is Martin <removed>. Anyone know if this is legit?

Hello @Celton1,

 

Welcome to our Community Forums! This is a great question. PayPal will never ask for your bank name or investment information over the phone. If we detect suspicious activity, we'll notify you through our Resolution Center. You can read more about that here.

 

Have a great day!

 

Jon
