Here is the latest paypal scheme. Never click a link on such an email no matter how urgently you may want to and how real it may seem. Open a new window and check out your email account instead. My main clue that this was fake... it went to the wrong email account. My Paypal emails go to a different email address. The email included the lifted paypal logo but it was a bit fuzzy. If you were to actually click the link, it woudl take you to sign in page that looks like paypal, but it set up to steal your paypal account information.
This email confirms that you have sent an eBay payment of $795.55USD tolcharlestodd.43@yahoo.com for an eBay item using PayPal.
