Almost certainly a phishing attack.  Don't log into paypal using the details in the email.

I had this exact same email today, but instead of $63.28 it was £63.28... for the same item. I'm getting ripped off! Looks very dodgy to me. Deleting...

Got the same message this morning in a moment of panic i signed in off the email and quickly noticed it wasn't a secure site so quickly came out and signed in through the real site. There was nothing to show for this so called item (39027592864) so i changed the password and i now hope it's not too late.

I got the same thing this morning as well. What did you guys do about this? I wasn't sure if I really did purchase something or what, but nothing came to mind. Then I see the exact same thing happening here and I'm not sure what to do or how to go about this properly.
