Supplanting PayPal email scams
know that this information is fairly well known, especially for those of us in the world of online business and have moved some money on the net, but I said if there are any confused or if someone does not know that we must be very attentive to the fraudulent emails we receive.
The point is that lately, I talk about earlier this week and I are getting a lot of email scams that try to impersonate PayPal to get our data and to gain entry to our accounts to steal. This is something that happens also with phishing emails from banks and ahorrro but with billing systems and sending money online also occurs.
These post’s comments I’m getting lately are quite well prepared to the naked eye, although it is clear that if you look you will see that betray them.
In the post PayPal (PayPal lying of course) tells you that for some reason your account has suffered any problems, whether it has added a new mail to your account or that there have been attempts in this strange movements and related cards or not linked to your account. I am enclosing a form (never open email attachments do not know) that asks you confidential data such as your credit card number or password on PayPal. Also in other post also put you a link to a fraudulent website where data or put you fill a form into the body of the email.
These emails are often replete as giving urgency to the matter and imitate the mail from PayPal, for example by putting something like service [at] mind-paypal.es, and also supersede the company’s data. All false, PayPal does not send these communications or you going to ask for confidential information. PayPal If you want to communicate something of this type will tell you to go into your account and once inside you will see the release or communicate with you in a real way, from your real email and in any case do not request such data.
In short, I know this is very said but lately I recibodo many emails as I preferred to tell, never give confidential information (passwords, card numbers, etc) because no law firm requests this information by email. And never you click on an attachment of a core do not know, could be a virus, and in these cases that a virus spy safe to pull data from your PC. Besides all this, if you are a member of PayPal since it is not over the company to notify the existence of these emails to take action.
