Scam

As others have said, when you answer it is hold music which I don't think a legit organisation would do. They claimed to be a debt collecting agency with my file referred from PayPal. I said that I had already followed up with PayPal (as I have been getting text messages for a while). I haven't had any response from PayPal, which tells me there is no issue, and there is no debit on my account. The operator said I should call PayPal and she would give me the number - I said I would prefer to look it up. She became frustrated saying if I didn't call PayPal she would just have to call me back. That's fine. I know my data has been involved in the many data breaches in Australia, so I guess these scammers have it.
