It wasn't google voice.
It was when you tried to send the 10 dollar to someone.
Then when you did not pick up the phone. This is all done by paypal's automatic system. your account is screwed. hopefully you did not have a lot of money in it.
next time be more careful about what you are doing. do not do too many things all at once.

Recently, there's been activity in your PayPal account that seems unusual compared to your normal account activities. Please log in to PayPal to confirm your identity and update your password and security questions.

To help protect your account, no one can send money or withdraw money. In addition, no one can close your account, send refunds, remove any bank accounts, or remove credit cards.
What's going on?

We're concerned that someone is using your PayPal account without your knowledge. Recent activity from your account seems to have occurred from a suspicious location or under circumstances that may be different than usual.
What to do
Log in to your PayPal account as soon as possible. We may ask you to confirm information you provided when you created your account to make sure you're the account holder. We'll then ask you to change your password and security questions.

You should also do the following for your own protection:

Check your account details (address, email, phone, etc.) to make sure they're accurate.
Review your account activity to make sure you recognize the transactions made recently.
Report any unknown or unauthorized activity. Go to the Resolution Center and click Dispute a Transaction.
