If you've just lost or forgotten your access codes (password or email address) to your PayPal account, you can click on the 'Problem with login' link at the login page (where you type your Email address and your password.

You'll be directed to a page where you can choose from the following options:
- I don't know my password
- I don't know what email address I used
- I don't know either one
Choose one and follow the instructions to recover your password or your email address.


If your account has been hacked or compromised, you should contact PayPal directly to lodge a report and regain control of your account.

Hope that helped.

How do I know that you are the ORIGINAL pay pal? I don't want to give my banks routing # & my bank account # to a scam .

Don't rely on any links from an e-mail you get. If you get an email requesting information from PayPal, rather than clicking on the link go to www.paypal.com yourself and input the information there if it is truely needed. Another thing to note is the web address in your address bar, not in the link (links can be programmed to say one thing but take you somewhere else) if the address in the address bar is https//www.paypal.com/anything then its a good address. The https means hypertext transfer protocol Secure, the www.paypal.com part is the actual server address, this translates into paypal's ip address in a dns server, and then there can be anything after the slash that follows the .com part. The stuff that follows the slash is server or database location information, telling paypal's server where to find the information you are trying to access or change.

Email asking for account details

This is 100% scam and we should aware of this type of emails. Usually they include links like "click here to verify your account" etc.. and in most cases, this email isn't text format but image format where they insert hyperlink and as soon as click on the area of the mail, you'll be directed to another phishing site with the similar website like paypal (only the appearance,) if so open it, but don't enter any information and check the web address on the address bar, you'll see something like http://wwww.paypal.com (4 w's) or www1.paypal.com (3w's with 1), etc..

Just ignore it and forward or send this email to paypal directly to their Scam Alert email [email protected]

This has been circulating for some time now, so we need to be aware of this, they can easily copy your paypal's password and username/email address as soon as you attempt to login. There more with this, at your first attempt, you'll get an error message that your username or password is incorrect, at that time they've already captured your login account info and have been directed to the original paypal website. If you don't believe, use wrong/random email address and password, click login and see what happens.

This is What We Call Phishing.


Good luck

I would like to cancel both my accounts on pay-pal so i canhave just one account but a forgot the password and username can pay-pal erase them both

If there's no balance or transaction with the forgotten account, you need not to worry, it'll automatically be deactivated after few months but your original/existing account will be functioning properly without any hindrance or obstruction. When an account is not active or transaction being done for several months, paypal will send you an email to your email address with the message describing about the deactivation of the account, if you don't take any action, it'll be deactivated.

It's better if you can at least remember the email address [Note: your username is your email address] of your account so that you can deactivate it yourself. But still you can try to close it using the "Forgotten your email address or password?" form.
To recover your email address and your your password, use this form...
Forgotten your email address? (you'll need to provide your name full name, zip code, phone number)
To reset your password use this form;
Forgotten your password? (you'll need to provide your email address)
After you retrieve your password or recover your email address, login to your paypal account, click "profile" and select "Close Account" from the options available, you'll be presented with a warning if you are sure or not, click yes and continue with it.

I hope you could understand my instructions, if you have problem with my instructions, please let me know.

Good luck.

Thanks for using FixYa.
