I received an e-mail today from 'pay pal'. It looked very official. It said that there was suspicion of someone using my account. It wanted me to use a link included in the e-mail to 'restore' my account and then make sure everything was correct (personal information wise) then it would be sent to the place that would resolve the issue. I immediately found it suspicious. I checked my paypal account by logging into paypal not the e-mail link. I then checked my bank account. Neither had any purchases listed. It was a PHISHING SCAM and I flagged as so in my e-mail.
