Is this a scam email?
I've received a very authentic looking email from "PayPal". In the email is from <removed> it contains links to <removed> and <removed>
Incredulously, the lady from PP Customer Service couldn't confirm that these was a legitimate or fake PP domains!
I reported to spoof@paypal.com, Thurs 8th Aug. Got an automated "Thanks You" response and have heard nothing since.
I've just received the same email again.

Hi @foxtucker,
I'm sorry to hear that you received a suspicious email. Please take a look at this reference for determining if the email is from PayPal or is a fake.
If you can't be sure, it's best to err on the side of caution. You can access your account from a fresh browser and not follow any links at all.
I hope this helps!
Olivia
