Invoice Fraud
General PSA for those who don’t know about this particular form of fraud.
It’s when someone (who is probably using a shell PayPal account with a throwaway email) invoices you for, oh, $500+. They do this by basically picking your email out of a hat and sending the invoice. I’m pretty sure you can even code a bot to do it.
In the past, you still had to click “pay” for it to go through. Well, now it can auto-process, and PayPal will start to try to take funds out. This is easily remedied by just hitting the “cancel” button on the invoice.
But that only works if you are paying attention to your email and your PayPal.
If you’re fairly lax on paying attention to PP (like if you have everything automated, or if you rarely use it), it’ll process and you’ll find that your bank account is suddenly hundreds of dollars short, and probably overdrawn, and you’ll have to go through the painful mambo of filing a report to PayPal and trying to get your bank to reverse the transaction.
So PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR PAYPAL. Or anything that messes with your money, for that matter.
