    Lots of people do this type of work, they send mails in the name of Paypal and ask the reader to do the login in their form, this way they will get the password and a/c of that reader and then they will hack that account. So before clicking any link or doing the login be careful to check the site.

    I know, but I went on to paypal.com and typed in my details and it said I have lost the money, I have only typed those details on paypal.com. Now I can't login, I get these error:

    Sorry — your last action could not be completed


    If you were making a purchase or sending money, we recommend that you check both your PayPal account and your email for a transaction confirmation during the next day.

    If you came to this page from another website, please return to that site (don't use your browser's Back button) and restart your activity.

    If you came from PayPal's website, click the PayPal logo in the upper-left corner to return to our home page and restart your activity. You might have to log in again.
