Paypal phishing scam
Today I rec;d an email purported to be from Paypal. It is a phishing scam. The part that totally threw me was that I would not be allowed to remove my banking acct, credit card... or close my acct!
"Your Ρaypal account has been Iimited because we've noticed significant changes in your account activity. As your payment processor, we need to understand these changes better.
This account Iimitation will affect your ability to:
send or receive money
withdraw money
Also, you won't be able to:
remove any bank accounts
remove credit cards
close your account."
There was a LOG IN bar--which, of course, I did not do. I went directly to the Paypal site to find that all was well, as suspected. I don't think these people are very smart--not as smart as we are, anyway. Please be careful. Clicking the 'log in' will install malware on your computer and your ID will be compromised. Just warning.
