Check out these 2 emails that I've recieved in the last 2 days, both "claiming" to be from PayPal.

The paypal logo is a link, that goes to a phony paypal login. That's how they get into your account, you think you're logging in & they get the login info.

This was by far the most exciting part for me! Payment total 821,659.25 USD

I might add, I had a guy listing, a 2010 harley trike under my ebay name, for some crazy low price, I could only see the listing if I clicked on it from the email link, not when I went into my ebay. I was getting a million emails on it, still do not no how he got my password. I had to put a hold and change all my passwords. Fukn scums
