hogmaw Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Do we take it you have never heard of Andrew Jackson and weren't expecting any money from someone by that name? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tee from China Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Sorry Jurgen, but where is the scam? If you don't know the guy and not expecting any money just decline and nothing will happen. btw don't paypal accept in other currencies and convert like a bank? I paid for something before on eBay with paypal to the US and I paid in £'s not $'s but no problem he got his money and I got my purchase!

Rayman Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 I guess its something to do with the click here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 yeah the click here will no doubt goto a none genuine paypal address where it asks for your login details Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 I started getting these a year or so ago - as always with Paypal you should log on via their site to check things like this, never logon through an email link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 I thought people would have learned by now - ANY email from Paypal or any other source with a "click me to login" is a potential phishing scam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
