Your PayPal Account has been deleted

Just a heads up about another PayPal scam

Email purporting to be from PayPal claims that the recipient's PayPal account has been deleted and he or she must click a "Recover Account" link to get the account back. . 

The email is not from PayPal. The message is a scam designed to trick users into divulging their PayPal account login details to Internet criminals.

Thanks Patchoo. Hopefully posters here are too canny ever to click on an email link, but it's always good to be reminded when something new rears it's nasty little head. Gawd, those scammers are creative little buggas, aren't they?
