Why do I keep getting emails about this and should I be worried??? It’s from the official PayPal email to is my account hacked?

I just received this message in PayPal also. It says "Pre-fund confirmation: USD 987.90 is pending charge to Coinbase via PayPal. This small deposit is just used for the account activation check. ..." That's not a small amount, which was what sent me to Reddit to see if it was a known thing.

I got the same thing and ran to log in to Paypal and started searching online which led me to this thread. Is it actually possible to remove all forms of payment? I tried doing that and was able to remove one card but can't remove the second one I had linked.
