Bizarre huge bill from RIM

Hi,

I attempted to purchase an app from the app store for $2.99 and now find a bill sitting on my paypal account for �1031-51p sterling !!!

Any suggestions as to how I can sort this ( as soon as, which goes without saying)

TIA

File a dispute with Paypal. Did the purchase go thru or you just attempted one?

Hi,

The purchase did not go through. Paypal seem to have put the request on hold until I "reset my pin" (I didn't know I had one). I have opened a message via "disputes" with paypal and now await the outcome. Thanks for your help, I'll update as I hear more.

Regards,

Francesco

Hi,

I have attempted to cancel the "pre-approved" payment via the paypal site but will still need to watch carefully.

Others beware : had you already "pre-approved" from an earlier transaction then you might have been stung big time.

You sure it is not a phishing attempt by a 3rd party?

Welcome to the forums.

1st, do not hijack threads. Your question has NOTHING to do with the topic.

Best way to get your friends PINs is asking them. If you mean make new friends, find the Social boards, can't be too hard.

I would definitely log into your PayPal account (directly) and check to see if the transaction is real. If it is a phishing attempt, the link in the email will take you to a different site.

Definitely dispute it with PayPal if it really does show up there. RIM doesn't have an easy way to get a hold of them for App World support.

That is NOT a bill, it's a LIMIT on how much you can spend in the App Store.

Wow maybe a silly question, but why would you need such a large sum as a limit on appworld?

Nah not a silly question. I wondered the same thing until I read deRusett's post.
