PayPal subscriptions are being exploited in a scam where fake purchase emails are sent, misleading people into believing they made expensive transactions. The emails, appearing legitimate, originate from “[email protected]” and include modified customer service URLs displaying fake purchase notifications. Scammers intend to instill fear, prompting recipients to call a fake PayPal support number. Although legit email formats are used, PayPal is working to mitigate this scam. Recipients are advised to ignore such emails and verify their account directly through PayPal.
