Call them and tell them what happened, even if you don't know the answers they might have another way of verifying it's you. Worth a shot.

That really sucks.  Gotta have that two-factor authentication on your Gmail, man.

Don't click any links in the emails, they're quite possibly fake. Call PayPal to make sure they're legit.

Well, if he can't log in to PayPal, they must be legit...

That's almost certainly legitimate, look at the email address. You must have a keylogger or something similar, scan your computer immediately.

Signed up for any services using your email password?

 

Edit: Check your trash for deleted emails.

Since it's illegal to do this, and you have to IP, call the police.

Lol, who cares if he has an IP? They can easily be spoofed, or they could be routing the traffic through that IP (TOR). Also, say that was the real persons IP, I'd doubt that the Romanian police would do anything about it.
