There is a contact link on the bottom of their page at paypal.com. There is three contact options. Call, email, or live chat. Try that and tell them whats the problem. I hope that helps. If any money is stolen make sure you report that as well.

Paypal have its customer service center where you could report anything that concerns your account. Just send them an email or a ticket regarding the incident and perhaps they's be considering a refund for your lost money. If ever you retrieve your paypal account, I suggest you change your password and make it unpredictable, even to your closest friends and relatives. I have this feeling that your account has been "hacked" by someone you know. I hope this wouldn't happen to anyone again. Cheer up!

wow, this is frightening. do you give your account info to anyone you knew or do you sign up for any program or sites that may be likely related. i can see you are new to mylot and that this is your first post. i have not met with problem of this nature and i cannot help you. i think only the staff at paypal can help u trace the money and retrieve the account back

I think you should contact the custom service immediately,and they will help you find you account back.the later you contact to them,the risk of money lossing is more big.

Sad to hear that from you. What happened? Did you join some sites taht might affect your account in paypal? So with this, contact paypal immediately, they usually respond in 74 hours with your concern.
