GOOD ADVICE0 -
The advice about paypal emails is always the same;
if it doesn't have your name on the top it isn't from paypal...dear customer is a spoof.
They never include links in their emails. If it has a link, it's not from them.
Stick to these simple rules and you will be fine.0 -
As prowla says always forward these emails to both paypal and ebay as spoofs, then delete. Cannot beat good advice.0
