Many of us use PayPal as a way to pay for items we bought or sold on the internet. It is a useful service – even though they do take their time about getting your money to you when you ask for it.
Other than that – decent value – people trust the service – and the trust the brand – which is why the crooks like to use it.
This came across our desk recently – don’t believe a word of it. Someone wants to steal your identity.
(NOTICE) Your PayPal account has been limited
In order to get back into your account, you will need to confirm your identity with us.
We have made the process easy for you:
Download and open the attachment file that we have sent, and proceed into filling in the form.
Our security team will review the information that you have provided, and immediately remove the limitations in your PayPal account.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
There will be no apology when they siphon money out of your bank accounts.
yes, had $1500 taken out of my account as a fraud e-transfer yesterday
This has been going on for well over 18 months. They are also using other financial services to try the same scam. Just mark it a phishing scam and delete.
