It looked like one of the official eMails. They used the same font and had also these warning messages included: "Make sure you never provide your password to fraudulent websites." - LOL fuckers!
Noticed it on two things. 1. They sent it to the wrong eMail. And of course the URL was fucked-up: http://64.92.167130/3%65%72%76%65%72%33%30/webscr/ (modified it, but I still would't click it)
So guys, if you still have a paypal account, be careful. |
