| "paypal" notice....is this real??? with all of the scams out there....I have to think that this is not real...I have been using paypal with no problems...and I would think the "warning" would have been posted under my account when I log in and I have not had anything like that. has anyone else seen an email like this??? _________________ Information Regarding Your account: Dear PayPal Member: Attention!

| yes i have. If it is real pay pal they will address you by your full name and include your account number. if neither of those things happened you need to report it to Pay Pal. sorry didn't notice that you included the email.. that's a scam.... alert PayPal of it. |

| That can be normal. If it came up when you logged into Paypal then it probably is. You can always email them and ask if your account is limited.

| Yes, it is definitely a scam. When you get e-mails like this, you can find out where it came from (actually) by highlighting the mail in the queue and then clicking file, then properties. Once the box opens, click details. If the 'return path' is not a paypal.com address, it is not real. Last edited by sammiz; 05-23-2008 at 06:09 PM. |

Luvs Lulu Donating Member | nah it's a scam...forward it to spoof@paypal.com and they will answer you on it for sure. It's good if you do so they can know that is being circulated.

| It's a scam for sure. It has happened to both me and my daughter. We always report it to PayPal.
