That website is a total fake. I opened the page source for that link and looked for the

tag for the login box. I noticed the action for the form is processing.php. I found out that the processing.php that it takes you is not on the paypal server, I make some bogus username and password, clicked login. It took me to a form with fields for pretty much everything you dont want people to know, social security, credit cards, all that stuff.

Someone should report this site, I dont know who to report it too though or I would have. This site is made to steal all sorts of information and your paypal username and password. STAY AWAY.

These kind of scams get the Arbiter stamp of approval. Anyone dumb enough to fall for them deserves to be defrauded.

SCAM


I sometimes get similar emails from "ebay" asking me to verify my details, or else my account will be suspended.

The worst ones are the fake emails from banks that ask you to click on a link to verify your account details. As if they are ever real!

Oh well, stupid people still fall for it and they end up getting their bank account cleaned out

Definatly a scam. All paypal urls start with https://... When I get one like these, I sent a reply saying something like "fuck off" or "suck it" which then send an email to the real paypal, and notifies them about the scammers.

that's a definite scam. if you're ever unsure about these things, just call paypal (or whatever company) and ask them.
