Another PayPal fake, don't click links.

[kopenhagen5]

Just received another PayPal fake email claiming I have made a payment to Australian Postal Corporation.

It has a link to cancel payment which of course will be only to get passwords etc.

Don't click on links.

If you have, change passwords immediately.

You can forward it to spoof@paypal.com.au

You can also add it to your blocked email list and delete.

I have had 4 in about 10 days. Sent them to spoof@ paypal but it looks as if someone has started up a new scam/phisihng site. All have been from so called paypal int. and for money to places I have never dealt with through PP so they are definitely hoping for a bullseye with some. you can block and delete but they only need to change one letter and there they are again. ONLY way to go is forward and delete WITHOUT opening .

I don't get as many since putting them on the blocked list.

When putting on the blocked list, if you put only @intpaypal.com or whatever the addy is, then all from that address is blocked so if they change anything at the front of the addy, it shouldn't go through.

Thanks for that - do not get a lot but useful information

It's just as well the idiots don't know what our postal service is called.

Fake me is buying a lot of stuff from Microsoft lately (sometimes 3 computers a day, must have access to reams of Monopoly money or something, 'cos the real me can't even afford one :^O )

[davewil1964]

I 'bought' something from Microsoft the other day. I forgot because the email went to my spam folder, along with one from HSBC and the one from Westpac.

But that's a month's worth.

The name ebay comes from echobay.com.

But Pierre Omidyar found the name was already being used and shortened it to ebay.com.
