My goodness Joe, what were you thinking? Or should I say not thinking! I bet I have gotten at least 100 of those things, and have sent every one of them to spoof@paypal.com and finally they have stopped. No idea how or why they end up with my Email address, but I have learned never to click on any link without checking where it's headed first. I just run the mouse over the link, and a little box pops up and shows the real address and it's almost certain it will be going somewhere besides Pay Pal. Seems like most had a Yahoo address in them, so I would forward the Email to abuse@yahoo.com too. Only takes a second to forward them, and you might be saving someone who doesn't know better.
And how about ebay? Get any scams from them too? I have, they want your ID and password so they can list stuff on your account, like tractors and you won't be any the wiser. You just have to keep your eyes open and pay close attention to what your doing. Stay safe!
