I get these a lot and it is very annoying. The only way I log into my Pay Pal account is from a fresh page and by typing in the URL. I also got one spoofing Amazon.

First one I ever got was when I was fairly active on ebay so knew my account was ok. Also along about that time a SPOOF EBAY email came in so knew it was BS too. Pac, set your virus software to restrict you from going on sites that are "hacking and proxy avoidance" which may help you avoid problems in the future. On Trend it's under Network Control, url filtering. Some folks figure why work for a living when you can steal it from others... [ More ]

I think that's how they tried to steal money from my Bank of America Account recently, after I made a purchase through Pay pal. Thank God Bank of America insures their customers from fraud. All charges were re-credited to my account. $1100.00 worth. I hope they fry whoever did this, and they said they would.

spoof@paypal.com . At times I also get messages that my AOL account needs updating. Then you forward those messages to tos@aol.com. If you get a message about your credit card provider, do not reply to the message questins asked. Call them right away and ask them if there really is a problem. Escondido California John
