Add email to Paypal account scam


Just received an email from a .org [header.from=notice@security.org;]

But stating it was from Paypal and I had added this dudes address to receive payments.

"If I did not authorize this change, please click the link otherwise
your account will be suspended."

Not new I know but just a heads up there is another on the way round.

this is the view from View Source
