Got an email, and the subject line said 'Online PayPal User Agreement Service Update‏'. So I assumed it was sent because my card details were out of date, and I needed to register the new card details. So I clicked the link in the email and went to an exact copy of the paypal login page, entered my email and password and was taken to another page where they were asking for all my details to be entered, including name and adrress. Thats when I got suspicious, went back and read the email and realised the english was not perfect.
Went to the real paypal site and changed my password, and the site also advised that any communication from them would always use my full name, my email said 'Dear paypal customer'.
Heres the text below, note the dodgy english, basterds
