Default Paypal

Guys be warned that emails are being sent from paypal relating to your acct having limitations being put on and to rectify to click on the link and login. This is a scam DO NOT LOGIN on the link, type in paypal on google and login that way to see if it is blocked. Luckily my account was on hold however the email is a damn good scam and not many people would realise that its not from paypal. Paypal have asked for these emails to be sent to [email protected]

these have been circulating for years now.

type a bogus email and password and watch it go onto the next screen without a message or anything. or your email and a blatantly wrong password.

I had a phone call once from someone saying he was from my bank. so when he asked for my date of birth I gave him a day out on purpose and he said yep that's fine lol. When I questioned him he said opps. so I got him to verify my own DOB to prove he was barclays lol. even though you only have to go onto facebook to see my real DOB lol

This is the best ive seen so far so be aware as these fraudsters are now using a lot of original paypal stuff and looks almost identical to what paypal send as well as it going straight into your inbox instead of junk.

yup. I got a world of warcraft scam site catch me a while ago (given up since and cancelled my account aka seen the light) and I logged into the fake site providing them with my account details. I only stopped when it asked for my CD key and I didn't have it with me. Luckily I cottoned on and quickly changed my password.

If unsure just type your password wrong on purpose or goto the official site and see if there are any official messages regarding the apparent action that needs to be taken on your account, etc

I ignore them all. No one is going to deliberately cut you off when you are using their service and providing them with an income. If they've something to say, they write to you, or inform you the next time you log in. No reputable finance-related company that works over the internet has informed me of anything about my account other than when I've already logged in, or in writing to my home address.

Reading this thread, it is no surprise they keep doing it, as clearly there are plenty of people they can fool. Ignore them all, is their advice.
