Has called several times in the past couple of days and each time no one on the other end of the call.
Tried to call the number back but it said number is not in service.
Wish these f**king scammers would piss off

Caller: claiming to be Paypal

I got a call today from this "Sydney" (02) number saying they were from PayPal. I have two PayPal accounts personal and business. There was no suspicious activity on either. There were no alerts or concerns. This is definitely a scam caller. I can't believe how many people still think this is legitimate. They are just getting better at it, so don't be fooled! Don't call back the number that called you, go directly to Paypal.

Caller: PayPal

Real, check your PayPal account and tell me it’s fake. Mine was is neg from an Uber order 2 weeks prior.

Reading the replies here made me do my own as I was highly sceptical myself.

That was my experience:)

Caller: Scam

Definitely a scam.

Caller: (02) 9258 7498

I have received 14 missed calls from this company in 8 days. When I called back and told them to remove me from their list, they wouldn't proceed without my name which I told them I would not give. They hung up on me quickly after establishing I would not hand over my personal information. All systems should be able to lookup a phone number. What a scam.

no this number is paypal - your comment is incorrect.

Probably you are a scammer?

Caller: PayPal

Genuinely is PayPal, they are from the negative balance accounts part of PayPal. They had kept calling and calling so I decided to call the number back. He didn’t ask for any payments ect just to find out when I was making my payment, which was cleared up quickly.

So annoying

Caller: Scammer

You’re are scammers! Get a real job! You’ll feel better about yourself

They keep calling me cuz they want money . Best believe they aren’t getting sh*t. And apparently it’s PayPal. They will DEFINITELY not be getting any money

Caller: Not PayPal

This IS NOT paypal, it's a scam .
PAYPAL will not contact you in this way

Caller: Apparently PayPal

Turned off caller ID to call them back and the ONLY automated message you get while you wait to be connected is ‘you can be certain all calls and emails from us are genuine’ that is bizarre. Also if it was PayPal they wouldn’t be calling me a million times and not leaving a message.

Caller: Not paypal

SCAM SCAM SCAM. PAYPAL DO NOT CALL CUSTOMERS OUT OF THE BLUE. DO NOT PROVIDE ANY CREDIT CARD DETAILS TO THIS NUMBER. This number is not known to PayPal. I called PayPal and confirmed this. Don’t be fooled, they are able to rattle off your details and can tell you information regarding your account.

If you have a negative balance you do NOT need to pay over the phone. You just need to make sure your financial institution has money in there and PayPal will balance it out.

Caller: Scammer

It is a scam.. Last time they called me I asked them to identify themselves and they were stumped. Then I told them that I would call PayPal myself if they wanted to discuss anything and they hung up. Just like all scam call centres set up in some dodgy abandoned office building, the person had a thick Indian or Middle Eastern accent.

MAJOR SCAM ! Block the number.

Won't stop calling, getting at least 5 calls a day from this number. It's PayPal allegedly. Don't answer it block the number for peace and quiet.

Caller: SCAM

I messaged PayPal and asked if they were calling me and they said they only send emails and it's not them trying to call me. Beware.

No one spoke when I answered. Can only assume it is a scam so have blocked it.
