I recently updated my bank details via the .co.uk paypal website and verified my bank details with the code sent which was approved and set. The next day i have received an email from a suspicious paypla.de which is german asking me to click their link to confirm my bank code details. Now obviously i have not done what has been requested but am wondering if the germans are again trying to collect information on British citizens as they have been trying to create a central data bank for all eu members tax returns etc... now i am in the understanding the UK voted to leave the eu and all of its suspicious and fraudulant dealing concerning non german finances. Is this just anoth way germany and it ex ww2 allies are trying to yet again rule over europe in a financial manner rather than through its normal tactics of war. My only message is BRITAIN VOTED OUT (BREXIT) AND GERMANY CAN GO AND DO ONE. Paypal should take note if they are complicite in the germans actions they will lose alot of UK  customers who want nothing to do with thr eu or germany correuption as a whole. Has anyone else experienced these emails from german paypal ?

In USA,all suspicious emails from Paypal we sent to spoof@paypal.com,it will tell us if the email is really from Paypal.

I think yours is not from Paypal,study the email address where it comes from?

The email was sent from paypal uk and had my sort code and last 4 numbers of my account, which leads me to think it is genuine, but regardless of paypal i do believe the germans are up to no good as usual. I am not anti europeans but just anti eu, especially under the guise of merkel and her party that resembles the nazi party without terror this time.

Thank you for your information and i have forwarded the email to spoof@paypal.co.uk which is my local paypal and hpefully they can tell if it is genuine or not, plus they may take note that as a British citizen the germans have absolutely no right to my information whatsoever either banking or personal.... its a bit like Americans having to answer to the Russains lol i say that as a joke of course !!
