Bogos email?

I received an email with the subject Quick Security Check - Unauthorized Account Activity. It gave me a link to PayPal, but I didn't use it. Going to PayPal.com I couldn't find any way to check.

 

How do I know it's legitimate?

Send it to spoof@paypal.com

 

It won't be genuine, paypal would never ask you to resolve problems via a link in an email, they would tell you to log in normally and direct you to the resolution centre.
