So you had a spam fishing email? Was it your first?

Don't worry, there are plenty more to come.

I had a different email not from paypal last week which started dear paypal customer so straight away you can tell it is not from them - what worries me is that they sent the email to my old paypal email address and my new paypal email address, how can they get both?

They send it to millions of emails, they just get lucky if they happen to hit a live one. I get several emails a day caught in my spam filter, many on accounts that have never been linked to paypal.

I had one of those emails a while ago, unfortunately I replied to them with my details.

You also confirmed that your email was live, which means it is now worth more money on the scam lists as they know someone reads the emails. Always best to ignore them and delete them.

I'm impressed... soolin... excellent input, no joke.

If this was "The Transporter" movie, rule number 1 would be:
"Never reply to spam".
