    I've recieved a phishing PM today, and I have read reports of another phishing email go out today. That makes three emails sent to various users.

    I'm starting to think this is a coordinated attempt by a group to steal people's paypal information.

    I hope this is not the case.

    if you receive any paypal phishing emails, just forward them to spoof @ paypal.com

    Paypal will take care of that.

    Never login to your paypal using the link from email.

    Paypal always warns you not to follow any link that asks for your username and password. Always open a new window in a browser and then go to the paypal homepage and log in. Following any phishing link will sure lead to an immediate wiping out of your hard earned money and you have to worry forever:(
