RE: Is www.paypal-survey.com endorsed by PayPal?
Hello, I received an email last week asking me to take part in a survey and they will put $175 into my PayPal account. The survey is at their website is https://www.paypal-survey.com/survey/selfserve/9dc/pap12345 the 12345 is not the number they used for me, but I wanted you to see the full url for the survey and I am concerned that it could not be legitimate.
The root URL of the survey, namely, www.paypal-survey.com redirects to PayPal.com
I've written PalPal and they say the email is fraudulent. I reach in the archives from 2011 that this company is legitimate.
The email is below, can you confirm this is legitimate and endorsed by PayPal?
Thank you,
Mark
We'd love to hear from you.
