There"s an increasing trend in Paypal phishing scams. The newest Paypal spoof I received warns me that my Paypal account has been suspended. I-t requires me to recover complete access to my account by logging into Paypal. I am delivered to a website that looks exactly like the PayPal login page, when I select the link provided in the mail. However the link does not head to Paypal.

This is actually the link shown in the email I received. If you have an opinion about history, you will certainly wish to check up about linklicious vs backlinks indexer.

When you go through the link it really requires you to a page.

It"s usually perhaps not a good idea to select links in an email. If you do, make sure that you are signing in to the Paypal website by considering the target area area of your browser.

When you have already responded to the e-mail, contact your bank or credit card companies immediately to avoid identity theft. If you wish to test your Paypal bill position, by hand type PayPal"s address into your browser and log-in normally.

I was able to tell that it was a spoof email as the email began with Dear PayPal member." Paypal can always address you by your first and last name. They"ll never send a note to you and handle you as Dear PayPal member or such.

Still another way to tell if an email is from Paypal is to consider the entire header. The email header is your indication of whether the email is from Paypal or-not. I found out about company web site by browsing Yahoo. When looking at the header it will say who sent the email in the initial two lines. Case in-the latest spoof mail I received it originated in

Return-Path: lester@server.ravin.net

Received: from http://server.ravin.net

If it doesnt say that it passed through Paypals server, you then know the e-mail is just a spoof. The FBI is earnestly investigating these spoofs, so please report any suspicious emails by sending them to spoof@paypal.com. You can also file a complaint with the Net Fraud Complaint Center at http://www1.ifccfbi.gov/strategy/howtofile.asp.. To get one more interpretation, consider peeping at: linklicious comparison.
