Some fucker has put through four transactions for over £1500 plus on a ticket site through my PayPal account.  Changed all my passwords on everything... Raised it with PayPal. Told the ticket website, Told Barclays. How long does it take for PayPal to sort? Any experience people?  |

Fuckers, Barclays will give you the money back while they dispute the transaction then the result of that investigation may be a few weeks.

The bank will refund you almost straight away.

Had similar a few weeks ago. Bought something off EBay using PayPal.
There then appeared a spurious extra transaction which I knew nothing about of about £140
Contacted PayPal who agreed it wasn't authorised and got me money back in about 4 weeks

Forgive my ignorance but as i use PayPal those subject interests me. How do people hack into accounts? Should I make my password stronger or is that pointless?

If your password falls into the category below you should change it...
Your pets name and your year of.birth
Contains your name and a random number less than 4 digits long
Your girlfriends name
A dictionary word
Your car registration number
The number of girls you have slept with (unless it is at least 8 digits long)
Anything that can be skimmed from your facebook account
