We have had a number of Members notify us that they have received an email supposedly from PayPal requesting the Members phone them to verify their account details.

The PayPal logo is very similar and looks legitimate. Once the Member phones the scam number, they ask them to verify their card details and then debit their account with unauthorised transactions.
Please always be vigilant with emails - never click on unfamiliar links and if you are unsure, search and obtain phone numbers from the businesses website.
Please contact us immediately if you believe you have fallen victim to a scam.
