Common paypal scam - phishing for account details. Don't tell them anything!

This is actually PayPal. They called me because I owed them money due to a fee reversal.

If you get this call and don’t have a PayPal it’s just a wrong number and tell them so. They’re not trying to scam you. You’ll know if you owe PayPal a balance.

I answered and then it rang which was strange, there was a creepy sound like heavy breathing and then an Aussie chick came on and asked if I was X then said she was from PayPal, said the call would be recorded and then asked me to confirm my name, address and dob. I said why and she said it was something about PayPal and I told her I don't use PayPal and she huffed and said ok then and I hung up. Sad to think she could be doing this to loads of people.

This Scammer tried to get my full name, date of birth, email address and claimed I owe PayPal the balance left on my bank account with the highest money amount. Very strong Indian Accent and after her speal when I told her she was a Scammer she was silent. She was rude when I refused to give any details. Then claimed I would end up being arrested if I didn’t buy gift cards in store to the value of all my money. She also tried to get my credit card details over the phone. Aldo tried to claim she needed four points if ID to keep me from loving everything. She wanted my email to send and I click on a link. Aldo at beginning of call gave no name just she was from “PayPal”.AVOID AVOID AVOID!

Caller: Claimed to be from ARL Collections

Just for the hell of it I called the number. Didn't reveal too much info to them. Indian sounding voice. He um'ed and ahh'ed as he mumbled that he was looking for my account which I had given no info. I said I had no recollection of having dealt with ARL. I also said that I had put the 09 900 3421 number into Google and it came up as a scam so out of interest I was just ringing to see what the scam was. He said that maybe I should not be ringing the number then. I then said that the scam info said that it was claiming to be associated with PayPal and he chuckled and said "on well you do know something about it then" and then he wished me a good day.

This person saying it’s not a scam is obviously part of it.

Caller: Illegible Indian accent.. made out ARL

Im in the habit now of immediately looking up numbers on Google to see if they are legit so good luck scammers! I never answer my phone unless its a known number and I block all suspicious numbers. So, if you're a scammer then get used to gutter you crawled from!

Caller: “ARL on behalf of PayPal”

Called my mobile today 18.7.23 - from (03) 9000 3421.
Answered call with “hello” and immediately it “rang” on the other end before it was answered.
Because I had already said hello I waited to see what the person would say. A lady then said hello and asked if she was talking to *insert my nickname here*.
I replied with “who’s calling”. She stated she was calling from “ARL on behalf of PayPal” and again asked if she was speaking with *nickname*
I stated that she had called me so she should know who she has called.
She assumed I was that person and proceed to say that the call was recorded etc and asked me to then confirm my full name.
I advised I wasn’t going to do that. She followed up with “well for verification purposes and for me to continue with the call I need you to verify your full name”. I repeated I wasn’t going to provide that information. She huffed and sounded frustrated before I hung up.

I have been receiving text messages from “ARL on behalf of PayPal for years now”. Nothing has ever escalated because while I have a PayPal account, I have never used it, it has no credit or debts owing, and most importantly it is not in the name that these people are trying to claim it is in (they keep referring to my nickname, not my legal name and also refer to my maiden name not my married name)

Be safe out there people and DO NOT provide your information to places that you are not 100% certain they are legitimate. Reputable businesses, including banks, will not call you and ask you to verify your personal information like this.

called and hung up in less than one ring. If its a scam, who cares. If it legit then they are scamming the system to say they called when they didnt
