Warning About Paypal Scam Mail

I am warning you again about fraud and scam mails. If you are holding a paypal account, don't be fooled with the scam mails that you received. I got this Paypal fraud mail in my inbox. Of course this kind of scam mail is not coming from the official Paypal site. My email add where the scammers sent it is not the one I am using for paypal. I hope that this post will serve as a warning and reminder to everyone especially for those who have paypal accounts. Never ever entertain this kind of mails you received in your inbox. If you received one, immediately put it in your spam mail. here is the sample of paypal fraud mail which was sent last time. What I did I immediately put it in my spam mails.
