paypal phishing

[jokach]

I got this phishing email today, looks like a new approach to getting peoples Paypal account. The link within the email pointed to a different website than Paypal so that you can verify that you DIDN"T add another email address to your account, but the website it pointed you to certainly looked like Paypal ....

Here is the email so you can watch out for it ...


You've added an additional email address to your PayPal account.

To make sure you can use your PayPal account the next time you make a purchase, all you need to do is confirm or not your email address.

If your email program has problems with hypertext links, you may also confirm your email address by logging in to your account.





Thank you for using PayPal!

What crappy English grammar and layout
Can you spot all the errors?
This is what a real PayPal email looks like
