fraud emails

[Grenville]

Hi ti appears I get a lot of phising emails pretending to be from Paypal.  I never check the links just go through the website.  

Does paypal actually deal with these when I report them to them

Hi Grenville,

Thank you for your post and welcome to the Community!

Thank you for reporting this issue. In general, you can recognise if an email is fake (also called phishing emails) when the greeting is impersonal or generic or does not mention your name and surname as registered on your PayPal account. Also, we never send messages that require you to click on links or to download attachments and that convey a strong sense of urgency. If you still have this email, please forward to spoof@paypal.com so we can investigate it further.

You can find further information and a video on this matter here.  

I hope this helps!
