This a one of those “for what it is worth” posts about account security…
I received a standard “New Login To PayPal” email this morning. It further indicated that a computer format and browser that I do not use (Desktop Chrome Windows 10 NT 10.0) had been the origin somewhere in North Carolina, USA (I live on the other side of the country). Of course I immediately logged into my account, changed the password, and finally enabled two-factor authentication. Then I checked that my balance had not changed. From there I compared the raw source of the initial email against the other PayPal messages I received after making settings changes. All emails were legitimate. No harm, no foul.
