Hi,
I've received an email addressed to my first and last name (just like the legit PayPayl emails) saying:

There's no link to click, I'm not asked to go to PayPal or anything suspicious... but I haven't received an email asking me to verify my identity (also checked spam - not there) or telling me my account was limited, so obviously I've not done anything to verify my ID. I've forwarded the email onto the phishing address, but should I be concerned? Is this just 100% fake or has someone actually attempted (or is currently attempting) to take over my PayPal account? Or is this possibly a genuine email but was sent due to a glitch in the system?
Cheers.
