Hi all,
Just want to bring to your attention the scam i have just received and nearly fell for!!!
I received an email saying my account has been froze due to activity from facebook and for me to complete all my bank details and the money would be refunded in full.
This has been done very very cleverly as takes you straight into paypal for you to enter your details. I thought something wasnt right when i clicked onto the help button and nothing happened.
I logged onto the Pc and into paypal and there is nothing saying about my account being froze!!!!!
Scary so beware an be careful!!!!

Hi Mandyloulou,
Thanks for the alert. I am sure this will help other members.
Just to add, when PayPal sends an email we will always address you using your full name, we would NEVER address you using a generic greeting such as PayPal member or customer. Also if we want information on your account we will request that you log in to your PayPal account separately and you will then be requested to provide any necessary information.
Thanks for posting
Paula
