Need to know if this is a scam: <edited>

I received an e-mail from this address today, which looked like the usual receipt that I get when I make a PayPal transaction.  However, I did NOT make a $225 purchase to the company listed, have never heard of them.  I clicked on the link to view transaction detail and it wouldn't connect to a site called duckduck2.us.  The same thing happened when I clicked on the link to the resolution center.  Then I sent an e-mail to spoof@paypal.com  hoping to confirm that this was a scam.  Their response was that they couldn't help me because the sender didn't claim that the e-mail was coming from PayPal.  REALLY?  Same logo, same format . . . .  I googled <edited> and it is supposedly a legitimate company response e-mail address.

So far, no weird charge for $225 is on my account activity list. All I need to know is if anyone else has received a weird transaction receipt from this company before because I'm not getting the info I need from PayPal.

It's fake. PayPal don't use that site name. Should change your password since you clicked a link in the email. Never do that especially if you don't recall making purchase of that amount. Always log on instead to confirm any transactions, check for any alerts/notifications etc. This is how your info can be gotten from your computer by cyber criminals.
