Paypal Phishing Emails

[Guest]

There are some new fake paypal emails doing the rounds, stating that your account security has been violated ? (oh bugger have deleted email and can't remember what it said) It was something along the lines of someone else has been trying to log into your paypal account.

Anyway I forwarded email onto paypal and it was a scam

Thought I'd let all you paypal users know, so you can keep an eye out.

If you always type the url in then you always go to the correct site, you should also report the emails to paypal, ebay etc. they do chase them up, and close them down

Me too a year or so ago and reported to paypal. Obviously still at it. A mate of mine actually lost money :angry: so be careful.

This has been going on for a long time ... be very careful. I tend to email seller and do it between them and me and no third party ... safest way if you can do it
