I just got scared about an email that was from "service@paypal". It had the logo when I opened it. It said it was confirming that I sent a payment of $194.60 USD to Susan <removed> (with an email address for <removed>)
<paypal shopping cart contents>
Item name: Irish COuntryside-Sheep Farm Tapestry Wall Art Fabric Piece
Problem with this transaction?
We believe that the payment was made from a suspicious location or under circumstances that may be different than usual. If made without your knowledge you can cancel and receive a full refund.
Cancel the payment (click here) online by confirming you are the account holder.
When I click, a deceptive site alert appeared, with the web address that blinked bahamabows.com/ic.html
another blinked englishlessons.com, then some other letters/symbols.
I went to my PC and logged into paypal. No charges show. I'll be watching, but I think I need to do nothing other than alert others.
Let me know if I should do something else.
First known blatant scam.
