Paypal Logs

1. Login Credentials: The primary email address associated with the PayPal account and its corresponding plain-text password.
2. Victim's Personal Information (PII): Full legal name, physical billing address, phone number, and date of birth.
3. Linked Financial Data: The last four digits, bank name, and sometimes the full account/routing numbers of linked bank accounts or credit/debit cards. In some cases, stolen session cookies (known as "cookies logs") can bypass two-factor authentication entirely.
4. Account Metadata: Account balance, currency, account type (Personal, Premier, or Business), and transaction history snippets.
5. Email Access: Sophisticated fraudsters often seek access to the victim’s email account "log" as well, since email is the master key for password resets and transaction verification.
