Pbarb2: Those are called spoof emails. People will send them out to look like PayPal or eBay or your bank.

First rule of thumb... never click any links in an email. Just to to the website on a fresh page and log in.

one hint on Paypal emails, is that it will have your full name in the Dear So&So line. Not your email address, or anything else. BUT I have been getting spoofs with my name lately. I think however, its because I'm an ebay seller and someone got my info off a sale.

Hope this helps</b></b>
