Recently, PayPal members have reported suspicious-looking emails and
fake websites. These fraudulent emails may address you with the salutation
"Dear PayPal User" or "Dear PayPal Member." These
emails are not from PayPal. PayPal will only address you by your
first and last name, or the business name associated with the
account.
Use the following tips to protect your PayPal account:
- First name, last name, business name
- Email and password combination
- Credit card, bank account, and PIN number
- Social security and driver's license number
- Do not download attachments, software
updates, or any application to your computer via a link you received in
an email. PayPal will not ask you to download anything for your account
to work.
- Choose a unique password and change it
every 30-60 days.

If you think you have received a fraudulent email, please forward the
entire email to Security Paypal com and
then delete it.
