Email regarding compromised account

Okay, PayPal won't allow me to input the email address I received an email from to ask if it's legit. PayPal is not friendly when it comes to possible fraud of there costumers. How am I supposed to know if the email is light or not?

Forward the email to spoof@paypal.com

 

Could also check the email header or the raw text depending on your email or webmail client and look at the email address and the routing of it through the servers. It it says some random server/domain name then it might be fake. 


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
