Here is the copy: We are processing your request to transfer funds to your PayPal account from your bank account ending in **35. Processing usually takes 3-5 business days but may vary by bank. We estimate that these funds will be deposited in your PayPal account by Mar 27, 2010. We will notify you by email if we have any problems processing your request. Important: By initiating this transfer of funds from your bank account into your PayPal account, you deactivated the Auto-Sweep option. This ensures that your newly added funds are not inadvertently transferred back into your bank account. You can reactivate Auto-Sweep at any time. Just log in to your PayPal account, go to your Profile page, and select the Auto-Sweep option. Sincerely, PayPal ---------------------------------------------------------------- PROTECT YOUR PASSWORD NEVER give your password to anyone, including PayPal employees. Protect yourself against fraudulent websites by opening a new web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer or Firefox) and typing in the PayPal URL every time you log in to your account. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this email. This mailbox is not monitored and you will not receive a response. For assistance, log in to your PayPal account and click the Help link in the top right corner of any PayPal page. This came from Paypal. If there is no Auto Sweep option, then what is this talking about? There is nothing linked within the message, So how could it be a Phishing Scam? I don't think it's a phiblising threat either. Maybe it's just out-of-date. Lots of features are not available at certain times and website forget to take them off? Think?
