I booked a condo through Expedia 2 days ago and the actual condo company has pulled a bait and switch. They took my booking through expedia and then

sent me an email yesterday that the condo had been double booked and they wanted permission to move me to a comparable condo. I received another email from them, which I now realize came before the one asking for my permission, confirming my move to the other condo and reminding me if I canceled I owe 50% of the total plus resort fees, with a total that is almost double what my expedia confirmation says. I had seen the photos of the new location on other websites when I was looking for a place to stay. They don't look anything alike. Like the difference between a model home and the construction manager's on-site trailer. Looking at the other condos, grounds and building configuration, I don't believe the condo I booked exists. I contacted expedia and they said they contacted the company abd spoke to the CEO and I would be contacted later today, as it was 5:30 am. I told them it seemed suspicious they were talking to the CEO, and if he was working why couldn't someone else there contact me now? Expedia ended my chat. I paid with PayPal which goes to my credit card. Should I contact my card company and try and get them to stop it? I don't know if they can since it's pp. Coincidentally, since I booked, I am getting bombarded with phishing scams straight to my inbox. What should I do?
