This is what the link in the email sent me to.

You should login with a fake name and see what happens

you do it. I was paranoid staying on the page for too long b/c at the real paypal website, it remembers my name and pass.

I got a very similiar email like that about 2 months ago.I am also apart of gmail,they told me that i needed to reinstate my account by a certain date which was like 2 days or something.So they wanted me to log in and obviolely if i did it they would have gotten all my login info.

I got one that was talking about a "random identity verification" telling me I cant login without proving its me. Went to paypal.com and logged in and nothing happened...obviously a scam lol. People **** at scams now-a-days, even though my cousin gave his pin number to a scammer via email and lost about 5k...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif :laugh:

I run a FTP server off my computer using apache //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif.

I spammed a shitload of fake logins/passwords so they can have fun sorting through them.

Emails that seem to be from a well-known company can put you at risk. Forward suspicious emails to: spoof@paypal.com

From the REAL paypal address.
