Yeah, I do get a statement of my usage on the Paypal page, generally eBay and Red Bubble, but no invoices. I used to have a PayPal credit card that I would get actual paper invoices in the mail for. I still get a a lot of text scams - my Wells Fargo, Apple, T-Mobile, Amazon acct's have been compromised, etc. The first 3 of which I don't even do business with.

Does Paypal ever send out invoices anyhow? As far as my dealings with them, they take their money from a percentage of the purchase - why would they need to issue an invoice? I guess scammers will try any familiar name as an "in".
