SMS message saying this is the Australian Customer Support for Paypal. No it is not! This is a scam from a +44 number, which I will also report shortly.

I received an SMS from +44 7757 625071 telling me that my PayPal account is going to be charged $600, and to call their customer support on this 1800 number. Obvious scam!
Just for laughs I called the number and got put on hold for the next available operator. No mention of PayPal, just a completely generic automated hold announcement. I got bored and hung up after 5min, how are you gonna scam anyone like this??

Just received a text message purporting to be from PayPal through mobile +44 7398 286144 stating they are alerting me to a recent payment made through my account. It does not mention my name and asks me to contact them on 1800 842 037. It is also a scam! Don't fall for it.
