Just a quick heads up ladies.

Don't know how many of you have PayPal accounts but there is a very clever and frighteningly authentic looking email doing the rounds.

Check very carefully before you enter any information.

It made me wonder today and I checked twice before deleting.

Yeah I've had one of those and reported it to paypal. Very authentic looking. They wanted my pin no for my bank acc.

honeybun:
This is my third and it looked so real.

As PayPal is linked to your bank account it's scary stuff.

My son who has a computing degree said.....make sure you see the http on the address bar. That is seemingly the most difficult thing to get right.

Joyce:
I delete them all, never report. I refuse to use PayPal or have they got my details without me knowing it?

English Rose:
You can now opt in for a security key for Paypal which sends a PIN code to your mobile phone when you try and log in. Therefore, if a fraudster tried to access the account they would not be able to get in without the PIN code.       ER x
