New Paypal details scam

Ranger

Looking for a team.
Hi all,
i know most of us on here use paypal and are also too smart to fall for this. But i received an email today supposedly from paypal asking me to confirm my details. I have attached a copy below for you all to laugh at and am in the process of reporting it to paypal. They couldnt even make the damn site link look decent...let alone spell.
But just a heads up warning to all....




Dear custmer , Due to the large fraud activity monitored in 2008 and many custmers registerd screen names with fake information and so fraud billing information,Paypal is taking an action against those activity through new billing system co-operating with members bank issuers. this message has been sent to all Paypal members to go through this checking if you still want your screen name

Yes, I still need my screen name please keep me registerd

No, iam not pleased with Paypal service and i am not in need for my screen name any more .

Once the process is complete, you will then be able to keep your current Paypal Network Screen Name to access Paypal Web products, including Ebay and the new Ebay Products.


As a security precaution you will not be able to obtain or change your password or update your e-mail address until you confirm your proccess. Upon confirmation you will receive a welcome message with helpful information.


(Notice : Ignoring This E-mail Will Auto-Suspend Your Screen Name By Midnight )
Thank you,


Paypal Network Screen Name Team

so its basically another phishing scam?

i love my browser - it detects them for me, though you should always check the website in the address bar. It will often look the same but differ slightly.
