I have a "screening for caller" feature on for my phone and this guy reached my voicemail. Didn't say if he's calling from Paypal, but apparently knew my name (in the voicemail he repeated my name twice, which is very alarming!). Not sure how they got that info if that's a scam; but I didn't pick up the call to verfiy.

Call back
Keep calling daily and I no longer answer. Claim to be from Paypal chasing after a payment from me. I don't have a Paypal account.
Same as the first comment
Woman with an *INCREDIBLY* strong Indian accent asking me to confirm who I was claiming to be <some Indian name> from PayPay. I told her I would not confirm anything as she was a stranger calling out of the blue from a number I don't know. To which she just repeated she was "<some Indian name> from PayPay."As if it would magically work the second time around LOL Have now logged into my PP account and have confirmed there are no issues there. 100% SCAM!
