XXXX XXXX ME Hello, XXXX! This is XXXX with PayPal Messaging Assistance and I'll be helping to resolve your account needs today. 

XXXX XXXX - XXXX ME PayPal doesnt know exactly how this occurred, when Account Take Over ( ATO ) occurs, its usually the result of accidentally clicking on a link to a fraudulent website and entering login credentials. The fraudster will capture this information and will sometimes use this information for malicious intent. More information about how this can happen and what you can do to prevent it from happening again can be found in PayPals Help Center. 

If you've already taken the necessary steps to secure your PayPal account and have regained access, your account is secure and no further action needed. 
However, after the {$1000.00} is in your PayPal account, you may either send the funds back to your bank account or you can keep it in your PayPal account balance and use it for making purchases or sending money. 

XXXX XXXX - XXXX ME This issue is now being worked with priority. Our Risk Product team is currently investigating how the fraudster managed to get access to the accounts. 

I apologize for any inconvenience and assure you that we are actively working to resolve the issue.
