Hi again!  Here is another spoof email trying to get your user id & password.  With these 2 things...the potential crimes are countless.

Do not click on the link.  I have blocked this one out with x's so you can see this example of a junk / spoof / fake / phishing email.

Please note that anyone can paste a logo on the email.  There are even 'typos.'  PayPal would address you by name too.  

What is an "Identify Check"?...just wondering.

If you have any questions, open up a new browser & sign in securely to your real PayPal account & see if there is any alert in there.

Forward to spoof@paypal.com if you get it in your inbox & help trace it back to the thiefs!

Then..."Just Delete It!"

Peace, PaCRat!  =^.".^=
