Has any one gotten a call from Pay Pal verifying your activity? I just bought an EO Tech from another member here, and about 10 minutes after I sent funds, Pay Pal called me to verify If the cash transaction was in fact me!
Pay Pal been taking a big hit lately??????

Paypal never calls or emails and asks for information.

If you have given any info out over the phone or in an email, you have probaly been set up to get ripped off.  Especially if they asked you for "verifying information"

Better report the whole thing to PayPal and change yur password right away.  If it was me, I'd kill the whole account now before it gets drained.

Me: Yes I did.
PP: Okay sir thank you very much, and please continue to use PayPal

Just got off of the phone with Pay Pal, and it was in fact Pay Pal calling. The lady Trisha that I spoke with stated that they are just stepping up their security a bit.
