Just got a spoof email from "Paypal", (actually says from "service") with a message title of "Confirm Your Information!" The body of the message is an HTML document that looks official, and it contains two links in the How To Confirm Your Information area. The first link DOES NOT go to PayPal's site, it goes to an IP address. If you receive this email, DO NOT update your information ... According to PayPal's site, you can report spoof emails by forwarding the entire message to spoof@paypal.com. Just a heads up. I wasn't sure where to post this, but I think it's important for everyone.
