Pbarb2: A tip for everyone who has PayPal, Banking online, etc...

If ANY place sends you an e-mail saying they need updated information, like PayPal, etc... DO NOT - EVER - follow the link that is in the e-mail.

For example, if PayPal send you a message saying something needs updated, DO NOT click the link. - Go to your web browser and type in http://www.paypal.com - and go to the site that way and sign in.... and once you sign in there, if there is something that needs done - it will there let you know. Otherwise, it was probable a scammer where the link in the e-mail might look real - but sends you to their own page to collect information that is entered there. (Same with ebay, any bank, or really - any account you have.)

Take an extra 30 seconds and go type in the address yourself rather then follow links. And if it is your bank or something, call them on the phone. I don't know of any bank that will ask you to update information over the web - they will call you, or want you to call them.
