Your feedback will help us better understand the types of services and features that will enhance the value of PayPal. The survey will take roughly 12 minutes to complete.

ALL- I'm curious what made it sound like a scam? Directed you to a well know survey site, asks for no account related information and gives you a PayPal email address to check validity on.
What exactly was it that made you suspicious or are you just suspicious of every email now?

A 100 pardons the survey appears real. I've watched way to many reruns of the X-files!
I filled out the survey, even told the truth on all the Q's! It wouldn't accept my form because I was not a member of the survey team.
Oh well, I use PP now and then, but still like opening those envelopes containing cash, checks, or Mo's!!
