Paypal Scam

Couldn't find the scam section. But I got this email from a scammer today.

Just keep an eye out for this type of email.

 

Just enter the url into http://www.phishfighting.com/

 

These are called phishing emails.
They are a dime a dozen (I get 3-4 a week).
Easiest thing to do with them before deleting, is to forward all of them to

NEVER click on any links on any such emails!
Even those I get from paypal (verifcation of payments, etc), I go to the site via my browser and type in the paypal url.

 

Yup stay away from these.

Nothing new per say as I receive a lot myself.

Just report them and delete them.

Skinny

 

I get lots of those every day, from ebay, paypal, 5th 3rd bank, chase... all scams

 

if ever wan to go to paypal, just type paypal.com in the address bar.

 

yeah, never, ever access a site from an email, you never know

 

I don't know but when I'm using paypal I see at left corner of firefox. "Read Paypalobjects.com", Accordig to whois paypaobjects.com is owned by paypal inc.
