I get that one about 4 times a day.  Between PayPal and Netflix scam emails, my in box gets flooded with those darn things. Yes, I forward them to the phishing contact numbers at both places and then I block them, but the nuts never use the same email.  It's always about 40 characters long and I guess they will just never give up and will continue to use different emails to continue the madness.

@Mindy D An oldie but  goodie. I get this in my Spam folder often. I ignore it. I have never had and will never have  a paypal account.

 

But unfortunately uninformed or naive people fall for this c r a p and loose money, get their bank info and passwords hacked, etc.

Me too... I received this email and had to call my bank to make sure this withdraw was denied. They said they get calls daily. Scammers tried to withdraw $500.

years ago it was a PayPal CS person who told me that any mail that wasn’t addressed to me by name did not come from them

Please simply drill down on the From name in the email and you will see a phony address. I get several scams a day and it is worrisome.

I got one purportedly from qvc.com saying that my Amazon account had been suspended.

 

Trashed it.

I have received the phone call saying someone has charged $120.00 on my  Pay Pal account. Like you @Mindy D  opened it years ago,never used it! Anything to attract attention and reply?
