Right I am royally F*****D off now.
Just got in from work to find three emails from paypal saying I have sent £130 to people that I haven't done!
I have disputed the transactions in the resolution center but I get the feeling that Paypal really wont do anything to help me on this one.
My account is a debit account but the cash appears to not have come out yet. Im going to phone the bank in the morning and ask them to cancel the payments if that's possible?
Any other course of action I can take?
Its not that much cash but I needed that to be able to fund the 600 mile round trip I have to make for a job interview next week 
If anyone on here knows how to hack propely I have a couple website targets if you want to PM me

Have you logged into paypal via a browser rather than the link they have sent. Are you sure they are not spoof emails to which you have now given them your username and password?

Nope I made sure that I logged in seperatly from the e-mails. I checked all header info first aswell and they did come from paypal.com.
The number on the back of my card isnt recognised so time to find the number on the website.....

Tell them to put a freeze on any payments going out of your account until you sort this with paypal. And tbh you'd be best cancelling your card and getting new ones sent through just in case anyway.
Also dont forget to change your paypal log in info!
