Paypal fake email

Hello, i don't use paypal, but i received an email that any people can confuse with a real one, it has the paypal logo, and also the paypal url encoded, redirected to other ip server. They says that your info was updated and you need to enter your credit card number again. They send this to random email addresses that in most cases is not the surfers paypal email, but sometimes is the same.
Take care

They may not be new but his post may save some newbie wanders in here from losing money. If it wasn't a good scam and worked like a charm, it wouldn't be happening over and over again.

Someone is falling for it.


You can forward that email to paypal for their 'investigators'
to research it and find more info on scams at Paypalsucks.com

This will conclude your PSA

Someone is falling for it... And its the surfers, not the webmasters.

... Save for a few.
