I was checking my email tonight and got this email that said that another email address had been added to my Paypal account.
Since I didn't remember doing this I decided to check this email out! The email said that a Yahoo email account had been added to my own Paypal account! (And it even wasn't any of my own Yahoo email accounts!) Since I didn't remember doing this I decided to check out my paypal account just to make sure! I did this and was relieved to see that the only email accounts on my Paypal account were the ones that I added myself!
This was really an authentic-looking piece of email and it is a good thing that I checked it out! (and by checking it out I mean that I went directly to the Paypal site and I did not click on the link that was provided in the email!)
So here you yet another example of how people are trying to get access to one's Paypal account. If you ever get email like this go to the Paypal site directly and do not click on the link in the email!
