Paypal Scam.....


Wombat asked me to post this on GN, he received two emails on the subject from the scammers;

I have just received 2 emails supposed to be from PayPal but it's a scam, they ask for confirmation of your account details like numbers and passwords, just delete it if you get one.

I haven't had them Frank, but will take Wombat's word for it.   I do have an account with Paypal though so will keep an eye out for it.

Yes, I got two from Paypal last week as well. I immediately deleted, then later I logged into Paypal on my own address to check it out, as they had said something untoward had been going on with my account.

Of course nothing had been going on at all.

Be careful with email messages from Australia Post saying "we couldn't deliver your parcel" as it contains the Crypto locker virus. One of my work colleagues opened this email & crashed our server that 3 states of Aus run through. Looked very legit so a trap for unwary players.
Needless to say our IT guy was having pink kittens trying to sort it out.
