Do you own a
paypal account? Have you ever encounter some
unrecognized payment made through your paypal account to some unfamiliar name?
This is not a small matter at all. I was in great shock when I checked my E-mail inbox using my phone this morning (21 September 2014, about 10:50am). There was a confirmation email sent from Paypal about the confirmation of payment sent to hostgator.com!!!
It was unbelievable..... So, I quickly switch on my laptop and login into my paypal account.... To my horror..., I found unauthorised payments which all done by hostgator.com!! Below is the screenshot taken on my paypal history list.
Look at the screenshot above! How nasty hostgator.com is! Tried to claim 520SGD + 100SGD after claimed 32.91USD from me! Luckily, I have not bank in most of my money yet for the past few months. If not, I have no idea whether I can claim such amount back.
Oh well, I was in deep shock, but I still can think well.. I quickly changed my password and report this case to paypal under Unauthorised Payment.
How can I be able to login into my account and make such payment while at that timing I was sleeping?? I was down with severe headache from around 15:30 to 18:00 while all these transactions were done at 16:45!! Wow, my soul can login into my paypal and make such transaction??? To be honest, I have never known that hostgator.com is exist in this world and I did not browse any websites on that day.
I am waiting for paypal to investigate this matter. Oh my, I really hope I can get back my money. I won't let go my money to a scammer. I would rather donate those money to those who need them the most!!
I've searched this unauthorised payment via paypal in Internet and I came across this Germanish blogger that experienced similar case though it was not by the stupid hostgator.com. It happened almost the same scenario as mine.
In my conclusion, Paypal does not provide 100% safety to their users. If you guys are using paypal, it will be better to not open any of paypal email that sent to your Junk tab on your email. It is because it's all where this problem start I guess (this what I read from some other websites).
Please, spread this to all your families and friends! Don't let any of these scammers scam your money!
