    Really? NO.



    Watch out for scam people, it's apparently a phishing site. See the attachment.

    Anyone received this before? What can we do about this guy?

    Do moneybookers have a "report abuse" type center?

    Sorry about that but never mind. It's a scammer sending me a phishing site of moneybookers wishing me to enter all my CC details or account details on his site. But I don't even use moneybookers.

    Never received any phishing scams about paypal though.

    If you were sent money from someone you don't know for no reason, it'd be wise to return the money to avoid any legal issues or getting yourself into a scam or trouble.

    I'm with the rest of these guys here and I don't honestly quite understand what you're trying to tell us.

    I tend to get them daily and as I have Google Desktop installed it warns me as well for opening such sites. BTW I always open the site and try to login with some fake username and password.
