A few years back I started to get a $12 charge from Lastpass on my Paypal account. I cancelled my account at Lastpass over 6 years ago so was puzzled why, especially since they don’t offer any sort of $12 service.
It took a lot of emails and complaining before Lastpass told me that it was due to me being an Xmarks (bookmark sync service) customer in 2009! Apparently they owned Xmarks briefly. Why the charge started a few years ago they have no idea.
Despite repeated attempts to cancel the charge via Lastpass and Paypal it still happens every year. Apparently neither company can stop it - so every year I complain, get the charge refunded and have to swallow the exchange rate fees on my credit card. Maddening and leaves me with zero good will towards either of these companies.
Go into PayPal and check under "recurring payments," or "subscriptions." LastPass should be under there. Click it and then revoke the authorization and they shouldn't be able to bill you any longer.
Outside of this I am pretty sure no company is able to automatically bill you on PayPal without your consent, except for a select few companies like Nintendo (where you can pay on your Switch without authorizing any PayPal prompts).
