    doesn't paypal now have ip address identification? Notice if your transaction notification for every time you use your card stops coming. call Paypal and make a record of letting them know it was changed without u doing it.

    I had a problem like this before and i called them and got it fixed in few hours.
    It was a hacking done by someone.....as my password was weak.

    Now iam using a better password..

    I calld them up yesterday at about 11 PM IST and told them my problem. These people do not understand anything so easily !! :D ... I was having a tough time making them understand things, and Im not sure if the lady at the resolution centre understood or not ... lol
    After some time I was said was that an unauthorised transaction case has been opened against the account and that Ill have to wait for 10 days before i get any kind of reply from Paypal .

    Things you can learn from this unfortunate event
    1. Never ever access PayPal from public computers (cybercafes etc).
    2. Make sure you have ample internet security software on your PC.
    3. Run anti-virus and spyware removal programs regularly. I found that Windows Live OneCare program is the best for this kind of thing (if you are using Windows).
    4. Change your PayPal password regularly, perhaps once every few weeks.
    5. Make sure that your PayPal password is thoroughly unique and you did not use the same password for some other sites.
