Beware of these Fake Paypal mails

Recently I received a paypal email to my id which was as follows


Dear PP member,

You have 1 new security message from Security Centre
Please click on the link below and update your account:




Unknowingly you might click the above link and share your information beware guys

 

It's always best to avoid posting the actual link here. Someone ignorant enough could goto that page and get duped easily.

You may post the email - but always make it a point to delete the link in the email.

 

When ever you get any such email from your bank or from PayPal asking for any info by clicking on the link, never go to site by clicking on the link given in the mail. Rather open a web site of your bank or PayPal directly and then check them out whats going out with them.

Regards

 

Yes. I got lots of email for PayPal and same for Facebook. I always check the destination URL first and then only click on them.

 

Even i got phishing email for my twitter account. We are the one who should be careful

 

I always become very cautious when I receive an email from my bank or paypal asking me to do a security check, simply because they have never officially asked for the same till now.

Careful reading of the link is a sure give away in such instances. The root domain is never that of a genuine one e.g in the given case, it belongs to some 'qwkrgg'.

I thing all the letters like these go from Russia as people are just ruthless there.

 

Whenever u are entering a pass always check the url area and see if its the rite site ur logging too

 

thanks for sharing... ill add them as spam in my webmails

 

Old shit, Get them from 100 different links everyday. Anyways thanks for that.

 

I always enter the URL manually by typing into the address bar, whenever I need to go to sites where my precious information are shared..

Has become a practice after I lost one of my email ID to a phisher.. It had some 300 email forwards in it. No imp info..

 

everybody should be alert from these lesson

 

Yes You Are Right

 

Thanks for reminding!! I will remember!

 

i also receive email like that too, just avoid

 

Thanks for the information. I have also received that mail.

 

Thank you for sharing this

 

When your name is not in the email then it's fake

 

We never click the link in the paypal or other payment gateway email.
we rather key in the url ourselves into address bar.
it takes more time (5-10 seconds more), but it can help you save more than that money.
