Recieve a PayPal scam email today that looked really convincing, execpt that it was too undisclosed recipients and to an old email address, one that paypal had once but was changed a long time ago.

Use of ! (exclamation mark/pling) doesn’t help either. Big companies don’t tend to go all!!!!

So I did some digging:

The subject line of the email is: Subject: Confirm PayPal® Message !
In the raw header included - Received: from unknown (HELO secure) (fedora@64.60.10.168).
X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2600.0000.

Paypal send mail via Outlook? Somehow I think not. Reported this to paypal and I expect some stupid automated response saying all is well with the world, look at the fluffy bunnies.

Anyway, this is just a heads up, PayPal scams ahoy!!!!
