I got a receipt for payment this morn, supposedly from Paypal - but I knew I hadn't bought anything (especially for a baby). It was NOT addressed personally & was addressed to my old adress at Paypal.
It's definitely a phishing attempt & I don't click links in these sort of emails, but they are getting too good at copying.
It was using the item ID (not a link) which led to an eBay member bxxxxxa (with well over 5000 feedback). The email has an email address in it for that member & it's a different spelling of her store name in NSW. Just in case she reads the forums, I wonder if I can say her name in the email is Bel.... S........, hope that doesn't identify her?
The email has been sent to spoof@paypal.com.au - should I send a copy to eBay as well as it does concern a real eBay member, as maybe she's been hi-jacked or hacked?
Maybe eBay's accounts have been hacked, as this email was sent to my brand new ID.
