Odd email from paypal

[Anka123]

Hi, I have received an email from unusualactivity@addendumtraining .com

It says my Paypal account will be suspended if I don't log on and verify my payment/ bank details. The email has the paypal logo but it looks suspicious. For a start the top of the Paypal logo has been "cut off" on the email and there is a grammatical mistake in the wording.

Has anyone else received an email from these people? 

I have done nothing so far. There doesn't seem to be a straightforward way of asking Paypal as it's all drop down menus.

If its a spoof, DO NOT USE ANY LINK.

Firstly if the email addressed you as ''Dear Member'' / ''Customer'' / ''Client'' OR your ''email address'' then that confirms its a spoof as paypal would address you by your full name eg Dear John Smith.

Secondly if there was a link OR attachment in that email to ''cancel'' the transaction or ''confirm'' any details then again it would be a spoof.

If there was a problem with your account paypal would not ask you to click on an unsafe link in an email or by downloading an attachment, they would direct you to log in normally and go to the resolution or the message centre for more information.
