New scam on the internet????


I think I have experienced a new scam thru the email today, so I would like to warn you all.

The email is posted as a invoice from Paypal (service@paypal.com) indicating that a transaction has gone thru with an individual in the amount of $300. It looks like a real thing with all the detail on it. At the bottom of the invoice, there is a "DISPUTE TRANSACTION" button.

I thought my Paypal account may have been hecked so I click on that button and it brings me to the Paypal log-on screen asking for password. A thought came to my mind. I opened a new windows and go to the Paypal site directly and lon-on from there. I didn't see the "NEW" transaction. OK. Case closed.

Someone just try to steal your Paypal password if you log-on thru their link.

So beware!!!

I got one like this saying my ebay account had been compromised. It looked "exactly" like ebay. after a couple page flips it asked for account name and password, "bam" they got me. I went staight to ebay and changed my password. I sent the link to spoof@ebay.com and it was indeed a fake. Be careful out there.
