    hello,
    Today we received this e-mail in our company's e-mail id which is related to our business paypal account.

    The E-mail states:


    Now, when one of our staff opened our company's business paypal account visit www.paypal.com, there were no such funds in the company's paypal account.

    So guys, is it a spam mail to hack our paypal id?


    Please explain your views and help fast.


    Thank you

    paypal-secured.blogspot.com ?

    Paypal, an Ebay company using a free blog service provided by Google ?

    No chance in hell !!!

    If you were asked to login there, change your password immediately.

    And have a look at this thread- same case as yours http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?p=7030917

    Don't worry!
    None of our staffs or I clicked on any of the links.I knew it was a spam but just wanted to make sure of it.
    Anyways, for safety, one of our staff changed the password.
