Here is a scam email I've been getting a lot lately. Annoying.
It's not even addressed to my email but some slight variation of my email.
Of course the intent is to get you to click on that link and give up important account information.
Don't do it! Always open a new fresh browser and manually log into Paypal yourself and see what is there. Never ever do it from an email link.

Best of luck!

Here is the one I just got. The "TO" field had a lot of variations of my email address - probably just phishing all the people who have similar emails.

I just received this exact message from 5 different fabricated people, with the same $ amount, and Paypal message. My email was correct everytime, and they had my correct address at the bottom. If Kathy Murphy or anybody who knows her reads this, tell her to delete her blog here. If it's like mine, and she copied her email to this blog, she is no longer anonymous and she's giving away her address.
