    Hi,

    I'm not sure if I ask in the right category, but there is not anywhere else better.

    The question: Someone has gotten my paypal account password and I want to change it.

    I logged in and looked for the "change your password" thing and I found none.

    Anyone know where to find it.

    Thanks

    Well, if someone else has not changed your password then you won't be able to change it.
    But if its still yours then you can change it.
    I think PayPal either asks for your full bank account or cc number to verify yourself in order to allow you to change the password.
    And also there are security questions.

    Try recovering your Paypal account. Answer your secret questions like full bank account or credit card numbers.

    Thats correct. I have recently changed my paypal password and it asked me for my full bank account number to proceed.

    I think it is listed under account info or personal info. Not sure what they list it under but it is easy to change your password.

    You should always call paypal when there is a security issue, and as soon as you notice. they also use a third party to monitor potential fraud.
