Attention Paypal users

Hey all, just wanted to warn you about this fraudulent email I received. It was apparently (not) from Paypal, saying they are selecting random accounts to review, and you have to click on the link to verify your account information. It also says that if you refuse to do so, they have the right to terminate your account with Paypal. If you've received, or receive such an email, DON'T CLICK THE LINK!!! It's a fraud and the people behind it, will have access to your Paypal account, therefor will be able to withdraw all of your funds! I've included a copy of the email in my post. A sure way to know it's not from Paypal..Paypal will adress their emails to you personally, by your full name, not by "Dear Paypal member..." Here's the copy of the fraudulant email: Dear PayPal Member -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We are currently performing regular maintenance of our security measures.
