Thanks guys for the comments. If you think you have received a fraudulent email, forward the entire email, including the header information to spoof@paypal.com and then delete the email from your mailbox. Never click any links or attiachments in a suspicious email. That\'s what Paypal told me to do.

Last month, someone used my visa debit card number to purchase credits though PayPal for his World Of Warcraft game (I don\'t have the game and have never played it). Thankfully Bank of America had the money credited to my account the day after I called them about it. My credit crad company offers the same protection against fraud. Always a good idea to check with your financial institutions about coverage in case of such events.

I have to go to the bank on Tuesday...closed tomorrow. All I know is once this is resolved I am taking my bank account off of Paypal. I\'m not taking a chance again. I\'ll probably just open a new account. Just in case the guy has my account infoand tries to do it again.

I almost got spoofed and my friend\'s room mate actually fell for it and logged in thru the emails so he did get his money stolen. Something about a payment for a watch ($400). ALWAYS GO TO THE SITE YOURSELF AND LOG IN TO CHECK YOUR ACCOUNTS! DON\'T CLICK ON LINKS IN EMAILS!

Paypal contacted me about 6 months ago to say they\'d suspended my account,the reason being someone had tried to hack into it but failed.They simply had me alter the password,inconvenient at the time but nice to know they keep an eye on things.There\'s no way I would be without a Paypal account.
