Comment on PayPal implements default data sharing with third parties: users must manually opt out
KnightontheSun@lemmy.world 1 month agoI had someone hijack my account last year, Like a dummy, I had failed to setup 2FA. I caught it in the morning after they worked it most of the wee hours. Phone and email had been changed. I contacted PP and to my surprise they were effective in righting everything. By the end of the day, it was corrected. I was absolutely shocked they were so helpful, but I guess it can happen. So, maybe try again?

Trust me, we have tried. The problem is that l, while the PayPal account was never verified to that email address, somehow a foreign number is attached to it. Every time we have tried to use that email with the account, the verification ping goes to that number, even though the email is unverified. We haven’t found a way to tell PayPal to disassociate that number, because we never had any account attached to it to begin with.
