Oh, sorry, I see you have contacted Pay Pal.
So what was the 999 euros payment for then, if it wasn’t fraudulent?

You need to contact Pay Pal asap.
If you log into your account it tells you how to get in touch with them.
It’s not difficult.
You might even be able to cancel the payment yourself

I went online after I heard about Bingo games that paid out cash. I knew it was only pennies but I thought it would be fun. They asked me to log in to PayPal so they could pay me. Next thing I know they have taken 999 Euros from my PayPal account! Both PP and my bank say it’s not fraudulent so won’t help me! I have no money for rent or bills and at my wits end. Are there any legal steps I can take? The company are based in Spain.
