Question

Ok folks here is the deal. I recieved an e-mail saying my paypal account is limited due to it odd activity from Canada, Russia, and Sweden. This e-mail is false and tries to get you to put in your debt can info and pin number. Here is the copy of the e-mail for those of you.



copy:



Dear temup65@aol.com,



In response for your PayPal account security we have to report that your password may be is compromised. Your account is marked for too many successful logins last week (January, 18-25, 2005). It is more interesting that the hostnames are form different countries:



United States (c-67-160-224-80.client.comcast.net)

Canada (HSE-Toronto-ppp3044429.sympatico.ca)

Sweden (c213-100-93-27.swipnet.se)

Russia (32.122.140.213.telenet.ru)



Your account is limited for security reasons.



Follow the link to make sure you are on a secure PayPal page and login with currently password.

Please authorize your account information on or before January 31, 2005.

Thank you for using PayPal
