Howdy! Tom,

EV>I got a Email today about My PayPal Account.

EV>came from didn't end with "paypal.com" I Forwarded the
FAKE message to:
EV>spoof{at}paypal.com
EV>so their Security Department could investigate it.
EV>I thought I ought to share that Email Address with the people who read
EV>this echo, because someone might want to help PayPal Security catch
EV>people who are impersonating them.
TW> That could have been legitmite as Paypal now handles ALL credit
TW> cards transcations for some online Vendors
The Email I got talked about "MY" Pay Pal Account had been compromised
because Pay Pal GeoTracked where it was accessed from, so now they made
"MY" Account a LIMITED ACCOUNT and I'd have to fill out the Form they
attached to "their" Email and submit it to "them" to
have "MY" Account
restored to Full Access.
I'm not completely stupid, some parts are missing.
