Just a heads-up to anyone who may come across this email. Luckily GMail instantly picked it up as spam and stuck a big red WARNING message across the top. I love GMail :lol:

I love gmail too. But it would have been better if it had folder structure too.

Labels.

i been getting emails like that too…yahoo spamisizes them also…they aint foolin me…

i guess the fact i dont have a paypal account was the first heads-up :lol:

:lol:

Did you change the link from the one in the email? Because that one is an actual paypal page (is it not?)

Yeah that link is real…

I get those emails occationally, I also sometimes get fake eBay ones.

The one thing I love about Paypal is how far they’ll go to ensure your security. Dang! Those people have such deliberately elaborate guides about taking care of such frauds.

***Note: If anyone has a shop at Cafepress.com, beware of anyone who offers to pay through Paypal no matter what. Just my 2 cents worth. :slight_smile:

Yeah… That’s weird… A pointless scam?

Maybe GMail changed it for you? :stuck_out_tongue:

Hahah, wouldn’t be surprised :stuck_out_tongue:

:slight_smile: hahha
