A few days later, while trying to make a donation to this site ... it says my account has been frozen due to a third party trying to gain access to my account, and wanted more info on me ... account #'s etc. I dont know what the deal is, but I felt uncomfortable with the whole thing have just left my account as is .. not functioning. Has this happened to anyone else??
That's phishing !! DO NOT RESPOND TO THEM and forward those emails to Pay Pal - I get them all the time since I started using my pay pal for the labels I make - it's another form of online scamming and they WANT you to click the links so they can get your info. They have nothing to do with pay pal - so be very careful and never reply UNLESS YOU GO ONTO Pay Pal's site and then you can do it from there -

NEVER RESPOND TO ANY EMAILS ASKING YOU TO VERIFY INFORMATION !!! That goes for Credit Cards - Bank Info and Pay Pal - Always do it thru your own account on the site after you sign in.
