Another PayPal
Phishing Scam



This one is so amateurish, it's silly.  Here's what's wrong with this:

  1. PayPal sends messages to you with your name in the greeting -- anything sent from PayPal to you will start by addressing you with the name you used when you established your account. 
  2. The wording and spelling clearly are not from a native English speaker.
