LMAO fucking Paypal

For the last two weeks, EVERY TIME I made a transaction using Paypal, within 30 minutes I have gotten some sort of Paypal phishing email.

MY shit is clean, I'm beginning to wonder about them though.

I'm killing that account today.


I used Paypal again for the first time since I started this thread. NINE MINUTES later I get another phishing email, oddly enough the first one I've gotten since the above mentioned incident.

The 6:51 email is the genuine notification of the transaction I made. The second at 7:00, the phishing one.

Seriously Jim,

Our servers went down and we need all members to resubmit their passwords. All accounts will be credited the correct amounts. Paypal.com should be back up within 2-3 business days.

You may submit your password to [email protected]

perhaps someone's sniffing packets at the send money confirmation page, and somehow extract your email addy from it...
