PAYPAL SCAM - IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!
anyone that uses paypal on ebay......
if you get an email asking for you to re-enter your info, dont do it.
its a scam to get your credit card details.
I just got sent a copy.
it may be that the adress was harvested from this site and you may get a copy also.
beware

Check for the https:, if it hasn't got the 's' then it's not secure or paypal. I've used it for years no problems. You
hear rumours about their site being hacked and stuff but I've never seen anyone who has actually lost through paypal, only through their own
gullibility.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

I recently had two emails asking for bank account details and mothers maiden name , one was a bank i have never used and the other i have an account
with. Obviously trying to take peoples id .The link even took you to an authentic looking web site.

Well... I haven't got a PayPal account and hadn't received an email...
I was beginning to feel a bit left out.
What do you know, I got one of the emails today.

Checked out PC magazine site as they send me an update now and then. They say the Paypal letter has a worm embedded in it so you can get infected by
opening it if your virus checker is out of date.
