Scam from Paypal Beware

I keep receiving this in my spam box, I know there are people out there who will click on the link thinking it is from paypal. I can inform you that it isn't. If you look closely at the sender's address it isn't official.

From:PayPal ppal@ppal.co

If you did not authorize this change, check with family members and others who may have access to your account first. If you still feel that an unauthorized person has changed your email, click on restore account PayPal and follow the next steps.

  1. I recieved the exact same one, all you can do is block the email address, although whoever these scammers are they will just continue sending it using different email addresses
