Was a good one until I got around to actually reading it. Most notable was the mispelling of choice as "choise" and "temporarly" (wonder how long that is?).

i also have one liked that on my inbox, the full headers are below, btw, the culprit link is this:
http://www.paypal.com-webscr.4t.com/index.html
I think paypal should be serious about this thing and put a stop on it by shutting off it's email relays or just anything. I got so many friends still falling for the fake email but I can assure you all it's not from paypal because in my case, i don't even have a paypal account.
