Paypal Fraud Email

[premkumar]

Email claiming from paypal, inform me that my paypal account is limited and I can't send or receive money. To fix this, I have to verify my account using the confirm button. The Email look 100% genuine on first look and gave me shock.

But I restrained from clicking the link and checked the source, which shows Paypal Inc.<[email protected]>

A this point, I started to suspect and checked the link in the mail, the link use sendgrid.net . I think, i saw such sendgrid link in many marketing mails. so doubted and checked previous paypal emails and found paypal use their direct links paypal.com in all their emails. So obvious this is fake.

What make me suprised is, the way the template look, it will make 90% of opener unsuspecting victim to this scam.

These PayPal scams have been around a long time. I use to forward each email to PayPal but they have come so frequently that I gave up. You will notice that the email addresses you as "Hello PayPal Client". First giveaway. PayPal always uses your registered name.

Best advice: Do NOT click on any link in any email!

Always go to the web browser and type in any address or use your "Favorites" link.
