Send an email if it's legitimate

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

Another call and hung up immediately

Numerous calls and hangs up when I answer every time

Caller: (03) 9000 3421

This is not a scam. This is a legitimate Australian debt collection agency. I called Paypal directly and they confirmed that it is their Australian debt collection agency, however their was no outstanding amount against my account. The likely cause was someone has fraudulently created another account in my name and racked up debts. I contacted the debt collection company and we worked out that only my name and phone number matched. My address, birthday and email did not match their records which confirmed this was not me. The case has been closed. Be diligent, but call PayPal first for their feedback.

2 phone calls as it looked and came up scam
But it is actually a debt collector on behalf of Paypal i dont even think i used my paypal account since that 1st transaction in 2018?
I had over $1300 AUD put into my account then withdrawn into an American account
They have left -$180 i am in the process of getting this wiped and the account closed
How the hell can a company have so many hackers

Caller: ARL

For all the people who are mentioning the Indian accents - not ever working foreigner is a scammer. This number called me and I confirmed with PayPal directly that it is legitimate due to an unknown negative balance on my account. I did receive emails but they were flagged as spam / scammers. When i contacted them, the man I got on the other end was lovely and very informative. He too had a strong Indian accent. Caucasians/Westerners have tried to scam me plenty and they do it better and with far more ease due to them not being instantly looked at as a scam artist.

This is definitely PayPals customer service collection agency. I called PayPal directly to confirm that this was legitimate and confirmed with them which details I would hand over before settling the $36.03c that I didn't think I actually owed due to them being flagged as scammers. I used my virtual card as everyone always should as the details change every 24 hours and I just blocked card use until those details change. It's a shame we have to go to these lengths just to make a payment but it's just our reality unfortunately so just keep educating yourselves on how to stay protected!

Ur an idiot

Wow, so the scammers are getting on this website to try and convince us it's legit. Keep in mind these people do these scams as a full time job. They get better at it all the time.

Caller: ARL Collections

Debt colletion service for PAYPAL.
You need to provide them your details so that they can inform you about the debt.
It is legitimate - however, if you don't feel comfortable then just call them yourself.

Caller: ARL

This number is actually not a scam call. They are debt collectors which PayPal use to collect debt. My PayPal was hacked and they managed to purchase a gift card with the value of $100 . I hardly use PayPal and wasn't aware. My PayPal is connected to my bank account so when PayPal went to take payment from my account which didn't have the funds in it. My PayPal balance then went to -$100. I didn't bring the balance back up because I wasn't aware, because of this I ended up receiving a call from this debt collection agency.

Caller: “PayPal”

Phone rang, I answered call, immediately heard a “ringing” sound like I was making the call.
Lady asked “is this X” (my nickname not even my legal name). I asked who was calling, she said “my name is Y and I’m calling about PayPal…”

I immediately just said “I’m not interested, thanks” and hung up

I have been receiving scam text messages for months about this.
While I have a PayPal account, I have never once used it, there is no balance on it or outstanding (I logged into my account a while ago after I received more and more texts about it, just to be sure)

SCAM!! Do not fall for this!

Left voice mail stating they were calling from ARL. Indian accent. I have received text messages previously. Obvious scam.

Caller: Scammer PayPal

This scam sounded the most legit the lady spoke with no accents and seemed genuine and said please contact us at our head department ect. I said I’d contact PayPal directly if there was an issue. Still tried to get me to authenticate my identity which was a massive red flag. Never give any contact details to a random caller. Reported to scam watch

Caller: Scammer

The usually PayPal scam tell them you know it’s a scam and hang up. Do not confirm any details!
