are these genuine emails from pp or someone spoofing me,either way im pissed because if pp have sent these it means they have tried to take money out of my bank via direct debit without my authorisation,
now i rang paypal and spoke to 3 different ppl,2 said they did not know of any emails,so its either spoof or they are trying to cover up someone trying to steal money from my acct,as we are not in debt to pp and cannot authorise any debits from our acct to pay for anything coz the accts limited it must be foul play from pp or spoof,
would not surprise me if it was some crook at pp im just glad we canceld our card and told our bank that any pp debits should be rejected

Spoof emails generally have a link in there that they WANT you to click on so that they can STEAL some sort of info from you....the fact that this email has the general "don not reply this is not a monitored email address.." shows that it might be legit.....where you expecting deposits that you didnt get? If you were and they havent gone through then you might want to concentrate on that. Good Luck!

ive heard so many stories about pp so it does not surprise me,anyway id of got the money back via the direct debit indemnity

I'm sure you agreed to it at some point with them... you're not the first person this has happened to.

paypal and UK law can never meet.

Now before you get upset, briefly, when you signed up to use paypal you (inadvertingly) accepted THEIR conditions. that they may not apply such conditions is another story.

I'm not convinced it's a spoof. It appears your name was there on the email?
Is this a newish account even though you had a dispute> Quite a few factors to check

bah! Uk banks often say that when paypal realistically should not have done what they did. If the DD mandate was not stopped by you, then paypal will fiddle....you've seen the result. Banks often say that to cover themselves.

Often it's one part of paypal not knowing what the other part is doing. That's common too
