Any PayPal Experts about?
I dont have a Pay Pal Account but was thinking about opening one. About a month ago I started getting this in an email about once a week:
Dear Client, THIS IS AN AUT0MATIC MESSAGE BY THE SYSTHEM T0 LET Y0U KN0W THAT Y0U HAVE TO C0NFIRM Y0UR ACC0UNT INF0RMATION WITHIR 48 HOURS. Y0UR ACC0UNT HAS BEEN FR0ZEN TEMP0RARILY IN 0RDER TO PR0TECT IT. THE ACC0UNT WILL C0NTINUE T0 BE FR0ZEN UNTIL IT IS APPR0VED AND VAlLDATE Y0UR ACC0UNT INF0RMATION. 0NCE YOU HAVE UP_DATED YOUR ACC0UNT REC0RDS, YOUR INFORMATI0N WILL bE CONFIRMED AND YOUR ACC0UNT WILL start to work as normal once again. This will help protect you in the future. The process does not take more than 5 minutes. CLICK HERE T0 VERFIY Y0UR ACC0UNT INF0RMATION Copyright © 1999-2013 Pay_Pal.com Is clearly a scam. But I have sent it on to Pay Pal on 3 occasions and never hear a thing back. Id assume they give a damn about it but if they are that bad at followup with prospective clients and if their security is that bad...not sure I need their services. |

Why would you send that to Paypal? Paypal can't do anything about it....it's from some 3rd party off in la la land just fishing for idiots that will supply their user name and password.

This. What's Paypal supposed to do? Go to Nigeria and remove your e-mail from some dude's mailing list? It's completely out of their control, and they have no responsibility to random people who aren't Paypal members that might be getting spam from who knows where...

they'd appreciate your "report" a lot more if you were a member
I've used paypal a long long time. had a few transactions go shady, they helped it get resolved to my satisfaction every time. And, I've reported this kind of stuff in the past -- got responses every time as I recall, but I'm a member.

Here is the page I get when I actually log INTO my paypal account. I have had paypal for 10 years. Anyone know if this is true?

She said if you try to add money, the government is doing account matching with either SSN or Tax IDs based off new federal regulations. They are actually doing it to verify identities to accounts and addresses to counter an increase in identify thefts with people opening Paypal accounts with other's names and social security numbers. |
