WARNING PAYPAL spam/phishing email

[peanut08]

spam/phishing email from paypal asking me to answer questions about my account or they will suspend it, re conversation within my account? stupidly i opened it and it just looked like a random questionaire, at this point i became suspicous and closed it and sent it to paypals spam email. They confim it was a phishing attempt!

This also happened when i got an email asking if i would like to cancel the recent payment from my paypal acc to skype, but the computer picked up and wouldnt let me open the link, god i am thick sometimes but they do look real.

Beware ladies robbing gits are rife atm

I've had a few emails saying my account has been limited and I need to click the link and answer the questions to sort it out, I never click them.

I clicked on the link there and it just shut down didnt go anywhere infact it did it open on a new tab, it was ur other message telling us what happened, I didnt know how u do did tht lol thats cool - paypal is always doing this obviously it looks genuine but its really not nightmare, Ive had a lot of emails from them this year look realistic but aint the actually paypal very worrying

I got this email too, luckily I mentioned it to my DH before I opened it and he told me it was more than likely phishing n told me not to open it. I have been getting lots of phishing emails lately since I've joined loads of baby websites (I don't mean this one!).
