I picked up the phone and called them about this one a few weeks ago and they said if it didn't directly address you by name, then it is NOT from Paypal...... and to watch this kind of thing because they CAN use those forms to get any and all of your information, such as credit card info and such. What they told me to do was login to my account and send that exact email with headers in tact to them and they can then maybe do something about it.

They told me that had I filled that out, then I should change my Paypal password asap and if I put my cc info in there, I should also have those cards changed, because chances are they have them. SOME ask for the CC info and some don't on these emails.
