    * Look for a PayPal Greeting: PayPal will never send an email with the greeting "Dear PayPal User" or "Dear PayPal Member." Real PayPal emails will address you by your first and last name or the business name associated with your PayPal account. If you believe you have received a fraudulent email, please forward the entire email—including the header information—to spoof@paypal.com. We investigate every spoof reported.  Please note that the automatic response you get from us may not address you by name.
    * Don't share personal information via email: We will never ask you to enter your password or financial information in an email or send such information in an email. You should only share information about your account once you have logged in to www.paypal.com.
    * Don't download attachments: PayPal will never send you an attachment or software update to install on your computer.

I just received this e-mail (May 14, 2011).  I believe it's phishing, as I haven't used Paypal in years, and certainly haven't talked to anyone.  Below is the email I received.  Also, it states that responding to the email gives them broad rights that no one in their right mind would agree to ("By clicking on the link above you are providing your Authorisation, allowing us to collect, process,  access, and/or transport your data to a worldwide website"...).  Yeah, okaaay.  I would avoid this like the plague.  And just where is Santa Maria, USA?  Click at your own risk.


Dear     XXX    ,
 
On 05/12/2011, I spoke to you regarding your PayPal account.  As part of PayPal's commitment to excellence, I want to make sure I met your needs in my response.  Would you please take a minute to answer a few questions to let me know how I did?

Thanks for forwarding that suspicious-looking email. You're right - it
was a phishing attempt, and we're working on stopping the fraud. By
reporting the problem, you've made a difference!

Identity thieves try to trick you into revealing your password or other
personal information through phishing emails and fake websites. To learn
more about online safety, click "Security Center" on any PayPal webpage.


Every email counts. When you forward suspicious-looking emails to
spoof(atsign)paypal.com, you help keep yourself and others safe from identity
theft.

Your account security is very important to us, so we appreciate your
extra effort.

Thanks,

PayPal

This is a proof that it is a fraud and phishing attempt.
So all of you defrauders here who claim that it is alright, shut up and rot in hell.
