Hi...I''ve been using paypal for years. This morning I received an email from Richard <removed> Paypal Support Team. It wants me to clink on a link due to unusual activity on my account. Is this legit? I have not clicked on the link.

Thank you for reaching out to the PayPal Community Forum!
Be careful with such emails. There is a possibiltiy that you received a fake email that looks like a PayPal email. I recommend that you open a completely different tab or browser and login to paypal.com. Do not use any links from the suspicious email.
Go to the resolution center and check if there are any open cases taht talks about suspicious activity or unauthorized changes/transactions. If there's nothin in there, forward the email you received to spoof@paypal.com.
Hope this helps!
Kudos and Solved are highly appreciated
