if in doubt forward to [email protected] they respond pretty sharpish

bet it said 'dear paypal user'

and not 'dear mad as a fish' or whatever.

proper ones will always address you by name. phishing ones hardly ever do

theres also an ebay email doing the rounds , I avoid them all the time , they usually go to an email address I don't even have set up on paypal , so I know them to be bogus.

They're phishing sites mate, basically a cloned version of the real Paypal site, soon as you enter your details it all gets logged back to there email accounts with your user password ect
