I use to get these all the time, send them to spoof@paypal.com.

Also Allen you might fix the "link" above so it's not clickable.

Anychanges you need to make go directly to Paypal, Ebay, etc from a new search engine page, make sure it's a secure site with an "S" after http, should be "https" such as.

https://www.paypal.com

My sister was burned by clicking on one of these.

I got this one about two weeks ago. When you click on the link,(omitted on pupose) it takes you to a site that looks like paypal, but is not an encrypted secure site. When you go to the real paypal site, there is nothing to indicate a problem with your account.


Hello James Kevin Lilly,

As part of our security measures, we regularly screen activity in the PayPal
system. We recently contacted you after noticing an issue on your account.

We requested information from you for the following reason:

A recent review of your account determined that we require some additional
information from you in order to provide you with secure service.

Case ID Number: PP-287-855-667

This is a second reminder to log in to PayPal as soon as possible. Once you log
in, you will be provided with steps to restore your account access.

Be sure to log in securely by using the following link:

Once you log in, you will be provided with steps to restore your
account access. We appreciate your understanding as we work to ensure account
safety.

In accordance with PayPal's User Agreement, your account access will remain
limited until the issue has been resolved. Unfortunately, if access to your
account remains limited for an extended period of time, it may result in further
limitations or eventual account closure. We encourage you to log in to your
PayPal account as soon as possible to help avoid this.

To review your account and some or all of the information that PayPal used to
make its decision to limit your account access, please visit the Resolution
Center. If, after reviewing your account information, you seek further
clarification regarding your account access, please contact PayPal by visiting
the Help Center and clicking "Contact Us".

We thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Please understand that
this is a security measure intended to help protect you and your account. We
apologize for any inconvenience.
