I get those also. It's likely a phising scam to get your id/password and not from Paypal. I hope you didn't follow the link in the email to login.
Yes, You should always type paypal.com at your browser. Never click the link in your email. How do they address you in the mail? Generally, paypal does not address you like dear paypal user......, they always address by your first name or business name.
The mail was from service@paypal.com and the subject was Please Restore Your Account Access I got two similar mails in two months and there were no links in that mail.
Yes forward it to . By the way, you can check the authenticity of the email by checking which mailserver it came from (this can be forged too but not as easily as the sender address). In the message header & you'll see something like: Received: from Hostname ([127.0.0.1]) by hostname with Mailserver software; Date and time Code (markup): If it's from paypal it usually comes from from mx1.phx.paypal.com or *.paypal.com & the IP address, (66.211.168.231 for example) can be traced back to paypal
If you are unsure about your emails, just foward it to they will tell you if its a real email from them or not =) (same goes for ebay) -->
That info is in the headers. You can watch some Flash tutorials at one of my sites http://www.onlinesupport.org/tutorials_email.php to see how to view the headers in various email clients. Vito
