You will know an email is not from PayPal when:

•The email uses a generic greeting like 'Dear user' or 'Hello, PayPal member’.
•The email requests financial and other personal information.
The email includes an attachment, a software update to install on your computer.

If in doubt send to spoof@paypal.com.
