Tesco top up receipt - is this email genuine?

[Mark5836]

Hi, I have just received this email saying i have ordered Tesco top up? I didn't order this and am trying to work out if this is legitimate. This is the email below. Looks normal but like i said i didn't order this and don't have a Tesco mobile. Thanks Dear (email address) You just ordered Tesco 40 Pounds on MobileTopup.co.uk. In this email you will find the payment receipt. If you haven`t made an order at mobiletopup.co.uk and you think that your account might have been hijacked , you can cancel the order and receive your full refund in your PayPal account instantly by completing the required steps. Serial number: Top up instructions: Please call 4444 (from your Tesco Mobile phone) or 0845 940 0000 (from any other phone) to top up your Tesco Mobile phone credit. Order summary: Etc etc

If you log into your account NORMALLY and NOT via any link in that email you will see if you made a transaction or not.

HOWEVER paypal NEVER address by your email address they would say Dear and your name eg John Smith.

Secondly paypal would NEVER tell you to enter sensitive financial or account info via a link in an email.

Thirdly paypal emails if you buy something do NOT tell you how to cancel it.

If in doubt of any emails >>>
