OT But Paypal Scam Email

[ruth-gehrig]

Yesterday I received an email (screenshot below) stating my paypal account had been limited. I knew that was absolutely false as I had just been looking at my account through*paypal.com*and it had no info about my account being "limited". This email was not from*paypal.com. All the links contained in this scam email lead to a tracking website of some sorts that will steal your login information.*
Thanks!
Michael

Hey Michael,

I've been getting these "phishing" emails for a long time. When you get them, forward them to spoof@paypal.com. You will receive a follow up email from Paypal letting you know for sure that it is a falsified email attempting to get some info and they will look into it further.

Thanks for the heads up!
