How can i report unauthorized use of my credit card by someone else? ( not in my account )

[justfossa]

I recently noticed some charges in my credit card statement. I think someone phished my credit card info and used it on their account to buy some goods. Is there some way for me to report it and possibly get some tefund?

Not only do I have the same issue, unauthorized transactions from PayPal to my bank account, I also want to know if there is a way I can find out the name of the person responsible

Hello @bdboy1318, 

Thanks for posting within our PayPal Community! 

I am so sorry you have experienced unauthorized activity. PayPal strives to help protect all eligible transactions, including those done without your authorization. To open an investigation with us, please refer here. I hope this helps. If not, please reach out to us for help. You can reach Customer Support by clicking Contact at the bottom of the PayPal website. They're also available through Twitter direct message or Facebook instant message. 

Thanks!

The link took me to a page where I had a few options to choose from, but none addressed my issue. Someone used my debit card information on their PayPal account. This is a debit card provided by my bank and not a PayPal debit card. I need to know if there is a way to find out what account it was sent from because on my bank statement it simply says "PayPal" and no other information given. I plan to press charges and can't press charges on PayPal. I need to know a name as well as have my money returned

Thanks for clarifying that, @Temp20220615B. 

I know situations like this can be scary, and I want to ensure I guide you in the right direction. It sounds like your card number was compromised and used on our platform to complete a payment. When that happens, you won't have the option to dispute the charge through your PayPal account, but you can contact our Customer Support team for this to be further investigated. If you haven't already done so, please report that the card has been compromised to your financial institution directly as well. 

I hope this is resolved for you soon.
