    Default Is this another scam?

    I had a surprise this morning when I opened my emails - there was a very official-looking receipt from Paypal thanking me for a payment of USD 149.49 to some character in Dallas, Texas, paying for a digital watch.

    Except that I didn't order a digital watch and haven't used my PayPal account for some years.

    Oh dear.

    JohnN This is a scam I received something similar just recently, forward the email to [email protected], your account is perfectly safe, the link in the email takes you to a fake site & if you log in thats when they get your log in details. all genuine paypal emails greet you with your full name, fake emails dont because they dont know your name.
