Paypal logo

All Paypal user please be alert that there’s a Paypal survey fraud going around. This time it’s a survery fraud. Fraud is never ending. All kinds of fraud happened - be it online and offline. It was Nigerian who are good at it but the China people are going all out nowadays. I bet most of you recall many were caught being greedy by the prize fraud by China companies.

Recently, these people from Chinese sees new opportunity in getting it with Paypal users. Mr. Larry Lim got a call from a Chinese guy (number +862128913333) from China pretending to do survey on Paypal’s behalf. He asked for Paypal email and registered address to “verify” his identity. The scary part is that this Chinese guy also has the last 4 digit of his credit card number. Please be aware that revealing these info will enable them to get the password of your account.

So do not give out your information to anyone who calls you to do Paypal survey on the phone. This applies to emails regarding such things as Paypal will announce such activities on their website. Check before you give out you information!

this seems to be scary.
but everyone should know that they should NEVER reveal their information to anybody regardless who they claim they are and what sort of threat they made.
