Many if not all paypal users have been sent a fake email asking for you to fill in your details.

Bare in mind online banks, or anything you ahve registered with will NEVER email you asking you to fill in your details.

On the paypal website (if you have filled in the spoof form) it advises you to log into your account and change your password and your secret question.

There's more details at www.paypal.com

I'm not fooled by that stuff!
when I see a URL link and it contains an IP address rather that the web address, I know there's something not right!
SO I delete it.

No, actually, it was a good topic to start. Not everyone has the knowledge of the email spoofs.

I ain't Crimson no but I don't like my threads being taken off-topic by spam-monkeys like you.

How is alerting people of a scam a stupid ass topic exactly? I'm interested, please enlighten me. If this is "stupid ass" then your posts are pretty much the pinnacle of all monolithic levels of dumbassery.

Correct me if I'm wrong but a topic being "stupid ass" is alot different from a useful topic that isn't likely to gain alot of replies.

Alot of people here aren't old enough to use PayPal therefore not many take notice of a topic irrelevant to them.
