Hello Judy Jones,
Thanks for taking the time to call us. We understand you may have had a
question about an email you received, which you may think is a spoof or
phishing email. We understand receiving a fake email can be a cause for
concern and we urge you to always contact us if you have any questions about
your PayPal account.
Below are some helpful tips and steps to keep in mind if you think you
received a fake email.
I think I received a fake email
If you think you've received a suspicious email or have been directed to a
fake website, forward it to spoof at paypal.com and we'll investigate it for
you. Do not change the subject line and do not forward the message as an
attachment. After you've forwarded the fake email, delete it from your
inbox. We'll send you an email response to let you know if the email is
indeed a fake. In the meantime, don't click on any links or download any
attachments within the suspicious email.
If an e-mail looks suspicious, don't risk your personal information by
responding to it.
If you've already responded to the sender:
If you've provided your PayPal log in details, change your PayPal password
and security questions.
If you've provided details of your bank or card account, contact your bank
or card company and inform them about it.
How do I report unauthorized activity on my PayPal account?
