This is not the sort of thing that we deal with, but I would suggest that you contact your bank/credit card and PayPal just to check that no recurring payment have been set up.

You can also report the spam message by:
1. Forwarding it to 7726, which is a free text and goes to your network provider
2. Reporting it to the Information Commissioner's Office https://ico.org.uk/

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.
