PayPal Email for Verification
 
Did anyone else get an email form PayPal assking for account verification with a bad URL in it? Looks suspicious.

Maybe not, this is for my mainstream business. I do not use PayPal for Adult stuff.

Just curious if anyone else received an email like this. Seems suspicious that a company like paypal would send an email with x'ed out images and a bad url.

But then again, shit happens so.... Anyone else get this?

It's a scam, read the fucking headers.

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound like an ass :) My email originated from some wacky domain, like ebay-auctions.tz or something similar.

Ok, so this is a bad one?

Received: from allstone ([81.7.117.162]) by mail.takas.lt with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.0.2195.5329);

Can they be tracked by these headers? How can I fuck with them for this shit?

I'd say that's a bad one, this would be a good one: Received: from irpta50.nix.paypal.com [65.206.228.76]
