PayPal E-Mail

[Sidewin]

I have received a E-mail from PayPal asking to verify my account, because someone is trying to access it by giving my password and banking info. Is this a common procedure with PayPal? I am very leary of giving this info.

it is a SCAM somebody is trying to obtain your log in details.

Do not click on any links.

Delete the eMail.

Clear your cookies and temporary internet files then run your antivirus and spyware programs.

I thank you as well. I just got this email too and was worried about it since it has the same email as the ones I get from PayPal when I buy things.

I too have received this e mail saying my acct has been limited.

Thats why I was looking here to see if anyone else had encountered this.
