PayPal scam going around?
 

I just received an email using PayPal letterhead to an email account that isn't registered with PayPal. The email said this:
The "click here" link points to an IP, I didn't click to see what was on the IP though. I actually saved the email for later use until I noticed where it was addressed to.

Anyone else get anything like this?

I have received those in the past as well.

nope but you can bet your ass it's a scam... always look to how they address you, PP always says:

Dear [firstname] [lastname]

scams are "dear customer/client/paypal user" etc.
:2 cents:

Welcome to 5 years ago :)

Sly, it's always a scam when it comes to paypal. I almost gave out my info about 6 months ago until I noticed the same thing you mentioned.

The email address was wrong... fucking scam bastards!

I get them all the time.

Now I feel stupid for even bringing it up. :)

One of the biggest scams around, it's called phishing.

no... what sucks is all of the innocent paypal users... who are not that internet savy who do not notice that ip address.. and fill out that info...

people like all of our parents!!!

Yep...all the time
