Title: Pay pal.....beware
Post by: jonclox on June 23, 2011, 09:13:19 AM
Recieved 4 emails within the last 24 hrs saying that details on my PP account are wrong(Outof date creditcard, wrong address etc) and would I please correct them via an included link.
These emails are totally fraudulant and having just checked to confirm with PP via phone they have requested that any further email similar are forwarded to their fraud department for ongoing investigation.
Please help them help us  :thumbsup:

One would hope that the real Paypal would never be so rude as to suggest that you are wearing the wrong dress.

I found that all emails forwarded to that address will be confirmed as spoofs, even the genuine ones that really were sent by Paypal. I don't bother forwarding them anymore.
