Fake Pay Pal AGAIN
I've got 3 email addresses and I opened them today and all 3 had the this same email......... So be careful and DO NOT open the link where it says click here..
it will lead you to the fake address wich I also included at the bottom. Most of us know what happens but for the people that dont know yet, well it asks to verify you personal info and if you do well youre screwed, theyll take you for all you have. so DO NOT click on it. we had a thread similar to this and when I find it or if anyone finds it post it here please theres more info on that post.

Re: Fake Pay Pal AGAIN
Genuine e-mails from PayPal will always address you by your username, and will never ask for your account details or password.
There are loads of these purporting to be from banks etc, and it's a pity that ISPs don't filter them out.  |

Re: Fake Pay Pal AGAIN
Also, PayPal NEVER ask you to confirm your details in a letter to you anyway. As Silky has also said, any genuine letter will always be addressed to your username.
If you get any such mails like this, forward them to: spoof@paypal.com and if you get a similar type for Ebay, the address is spoof@ebay.com Good call Sotelo, there must be people out there who get conned by these lowlives or else they wouldn't do it so good to warn people. If one person is saved from losing a fortune then it it's worth it. Cheers, Rob
