How would scammers have that information? The only other way I can think of is if they're skimming info from the fundraiser website (I donated anonymously and declined to publicly list my donation amount), but I don't want to start throwing around accusations if there's any chance this call was legit. Much more concerning: They had accurate transaction information about a charge I had just placed. Thing is, I didn't give the robot any info beyond pressing "1" to confirm my identity as the payer, so I can't figure out what they were after unless they were hoping I'd call that number they listed. There was a lot of contradictory information, but based on what I could tell, it seems like PayPal does *not* make these kinds of calls, and there were a lot of stories from people who got scammed by calls from that exact same number. I began to get a little skeptical, so I did some Googling. Then it correctly listed information about the transaction, including amount and recipient name, but it didn't ever actually give me the option to verify, instead telling me to login to my PayPal account or call a number they provided.įrustrated, I logged into my account, where my transaction was listed, but there was no option to verify. A few minutes after I completed the transaction I got a call from 402 935-7733, with a robot saying they were PayPal and I needed to verify the transaction. I just donated money via PayPal to a friend's fundraiser through a fundraiser website. The time of day you call can significantly affect both the wait time, and which call center (domestic or off-shore) you reach. Once you do it you will be connected with a live customer service representative (typical waiting time is about 1 hour 20 minutes – 1 hour 50 minutes). Then enter 2 and say “speak to the a representative”.
