One of Many Paypal Scams

I get a lot of these PayPal phishing emails.  They always tip me off as scams because I DON’T USE PAYPAL, so their pathetic attempt to scare me into clicking their link and submitting my PayPal account information is in vain.  Ha ha!!  Jerks.

Don’t fall for these.  If you get any kind of email from “PayPal” claiming your account is restricted, or that a transaction will be clearing your account and they want to verify it, do not click the link contained in the email.  If it really looks like a legitimate email, log into your PayPal account directly and look for a message from the company.

Here is the latest bogus email for your enjoyment:

Resolution Center: Your account access has been limited.

Date:29/10/2009

Dear member of PayPal…

Due to the number of incorrect login attempts,
your Paypal Account has been limited for your security.
