Hi all. NEED HELP ASAP. I lOST access to my old PayPal account because I forogt the password but it wouldn’t let me reset it without verifying my account but the phone number on it I didn’t update it and so I couldn’t receive the verification code because. I no longer have that number. Today I saw an email from PayPal that my phone number on this account has been changed so someone has hacked my account. How can I close and delete this account asap? I’ve got a new PayPal account with my gmail address I’ve been using. But I need to delete the one with my outlook email address.
