How did paypal get your SSN number? I have a paypal account, but never gave them my bank details (to get "verified" what ever that means!) nor my SSN number. Even if I gave, it would not have made a difference. i keep all 3 of my credit files frozen.

I let them know if their pull was not removed from my report I would file a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in Washington (Thank you Elizabeth Warren!)
