unauthorised Paypal purchase

[wannabedamned]

How could someone make a purchase on my paypal account, when I know for a fact no one knows my password or secret questions.

100 euros went out of my account to Skype the other day, I immediately complained about the purchase and within a week the purchase had been reversed, Obviously paypal saw the purchase to be suspicous, Hense the quick reversal, Without any questions asked.

But what i want to know is, How is it possible for someone to have bought anything using my paypal?

My password is UNGUESSABLE, as are my secret questions.

I log in on 2 machines, This one at work, which only I access. And the one at home, Which again, Only I access.

It's a real mystery

Possible key logger on one of more of the machines you use?

It's a bit silly making your password UNGUESSABLE that's normally the third or fourth one I use when trying to guess

Anyway happened to my missus before christmas she apparently bought some software in the states.

My password is UNGUESSABLE, as are my secret questions.

I thought that was your password for a second then

Hi Guys, I'm having trouble with my paypal account,
Username: Blah
Password: Blah

For some reason, Funds keep getting withdrawn, Now I've never given my password out to a soul! I'm very good at keeping things like that to myself!

if you've signed up with Skype you have the option of doing a kind of direct debit thing with your PayPal account... if you've done that its conceivable that Skype messed up and pulled money from your account...

otherwise i'd put my money on a keylogger, although it seems like a weird thing to spend your cash on if you did get hacked :S
