Scammers working off of paypal name???

[cassie]

I used to get one like that every few months. I'd just forward it to PayPal. I also got one like that about my Wells Fargo checking account. I have never had a bank account with Wells Fargo.

If in doubt, always check your PayPal account. I get them from time to time and havent had one this year since I threw all bogus in the trash. If you move your cursor to the search bar or the email address you can spot it right off if it is a scam or the real thing.

Also PP will NOT introduce their emails by your first name, either.

Natalie,
I had the same message one time and called Paypal directly. They said they were not sending out those messages and provided me with a site to report the spam. I NEVER click on something like that..you just never know..
