Default Paypal and Ebay Spoofs

Posted By: Jay

I know we have had threads about this but it can't be stressed enough. I just got a Paypal spoof that looked absolutely perfect. The byline was from service@paypal.com, and the border in the letter was the same as Paypal.

As far as I can tell the best way to check for a spoof is to look at the salutation. If it has your real name there than it is real, but if it says Dear Valued Customer it is not.

Also, I always feel more comfortable deleting the email, than manually checking my accounts.

Regards to all,
