If not activity in your paypal account then no.
Normally these are just spoof emails and the sender doesn't even have a paypal account.
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.

I got a phishing email just like it concerning bitcoin. I wish the government would catch these folks and through them in jail.
