Paypal fraud!!!

Received a rude shock this morning..an email notification that US$34.95 was paid to Yahoo.com. from my Paypal account! It was payment for Yahoo! Premium Services. Huh??

Immediately called Paypal Singapore. Had opened a dispute for it. It was very strange coz the "hacker" didnt change password. I still can access it using the password. Ive changed a new password.

Who the hell in the right frame of mind would pay US$34.95 (SGD$55+) for the so-called Yahoo! Premium Services???? I dont even have an idea what this permium svs is all about.

Beware!!! Paypal is not safe!
