unauthorised payment

[sprinklespowerpuff]

Hi, just noticed in my junk folder of my email account 2 messages from Paypal advising me of unauthorised payments to 2 Ebay members. Anyone know what's going on here? Thanks for your help.

sprinklespowerpuff that is what the link text says only - but if you hover over the link you will see that the website it actually directs you to is not paypal.com but is different domain with paypal in the web address - but its not paypal !!!!

Oh hell,  thanks. Didn't know I'd done anything wrong.

[thecatspjs]

done the same myself  😮

Done, clicked on "web address or item number in title". Is that the right one?

[thecatspjs]

no select "remove my post" not recommended - its tends to be more quickly removed and then you may avoid getting a board policy violation  

ignore the not recommended bit - ??? its a mystery to me why they have that, but nothing bad has happened to me (yet - lol)
