you usually need to confirm when your account is changed, and it will send an email to your original email address linked to the account. if you keep an eye on your emails you'd probably catch it i think. they'd have to add a new email address and change the account over to that, i would change your email password as well just to be safe. after they add the new email address they'd have to add a bank account, wait for that to confirm, then they could transfer money to the new bank acct.
hopefully you get it all straightened out, that sucks. its not common and i think paypal is usually pretty secure, but nothing is 100%.

Nope, paypal got me back the money they spend out of the funds I had in the actual paypal account. It's already back in my paypal and pending in my bank account. My bank stopped the transfer before it got into the paypal account. Even if it did, I already changed the paypal account password so they wouldn't be able to get to the funds or create a new bank account to transfer them to. So I should be good.
For some reason dude, paypal didn't send a confirmation that they changed my email address. Also, my email password is not the same as my paypal, so they couldn't have both, can they?
Also paypal said even if they got away with the scheme, they would fully reimburse me for all fraudulant purchases, even if my original money wasn't recovered.
