I have had three spoofs in three days all relating to Ebay and Paypal...

Title of the messges say things like New Email Address Added, suspicious activity etc...

DO NOT CLICK THE LINKS...

Go to paypal.com and read how to identify these spoofs...

[Moderator's edit]: Even the email links seem to be legit.[/Moderator's edit]:
They are all bogus....

Hey T_I,

Thanks for the heads up on that particular version of "Phishing" scam. There are so many of them going around lately that it's hard to keep up.

I've removed the email link you posted for security reasons, but here's the direct link to PayPal's warning regarding the scam:

Please do not contact me by email or PM for help. We're all volunteers here, and only have so much free time to dedicate to our efforts.

However, if I've been working on a thread with you already, and seem to have "forgotten" your thread, please do send me a message. I try not to let things slip through the cracks, but it does happen sometimes.
