Paypal Email...
#1
Well, I was shocked by this email this morning...partly as I don't talk to people so have never needed Skype...and partly as I don't have that much in the paypal or linked bank account. Confused Don't worry, I didn't click the link lol, when you look into it there are a lot of problems with it....but at first glance its easy to see how people do get caught by these things! Undecided

Anyone else got the same one?

That's pretty bang on. Just missing a few logos and that would be legit

Yes I have been hit by these too. Two identical emails to both of my email accounts - one of which isnt even associated with paypal. The paypal font is a bit off as they obviously werent clever enough to copy the logo but werent going to pay for the official font either. The colours however are spot on.

Received from 'wwwsup@tomtompa.tx'

With further research the .tx domain name doesnt exist as far as im aware. And the phone number is a landline in New York but isnt the paypal one.

The link then links to an arabix site 'b-1.cc'.

And a space between the word and them... Tbf that's the first thing that made me think it wasn't real. lol


And I'll keep an eye out for that one as well, Sam! Confused

anything like that, I don't click the links thru their bit emails, I only started getting those when I signed up to facebook.

Nah, I didn't click the link, went directly to PayPal instead.

I'm not on facebook these days, haven't been for about 4 or 5 months iirc.

A girl at work nearly fell for "send item complete shipping details and then PayPal will release your funds email"
