Paypal Double Withdraw Bug 3/14 to 3/16 2017
I just hang up with PP after reviewing my account last night and noticing some crazy balance jump all over the place; such as for example a credit (previously an auth) into my account for $1000, right after the withdraw of $1000 but my balance went from 10K to 8000K (like the took twice the money even though it doesn’t show anywhere).
So, I called PP, get ahold of someone, explained the situation and to my surprise, he confirmed they had a “bug” between the 14th and the 16th which made duplicate charges in “some accounts” (who knows how many). WTF!
To my immediately question about on how on earth I haven’t received an email or a mere notification from them to make sure our accounts were not compromised, he told they were working on it.
So, if yesterday, I didn’t have enough spare time to spend and check my Activity Report, guess what? I am f#$%.
He checked all transactions from those 2 days and reimbursed me $3890! Thanks god I noticed it. So please go ahead and check those 2 days in our PPs to make sure it’s all good and they didn’t steal your money as they almost did to me.
Please note I have made those payments with the PP business debit card, not sure (they won’t say) if that happened as well with PP payments, etc.
