Hi All,
There is a site out there trying to harvest passwords. As a reminder, a PayPal representative will never ask you for your password and the only site you should log into is PayPal (any links we have will direct you to our site and will not contain any other information).
This is the site:http://secure.paypal-sINVESTrvices.com
This is a copy of the email going out:
Dear PayPal customer,
Due to technical problems we need You to confirm your E-mail Address and
Passwor
d, just
click on the following link and enter your E-mail Address and Password:
http://secure.paypal-sINVESTrvices.com
If your E-mail program has problems with hypertext links,
you may also copy the above link and paste it into your browser.
If you need help, please contact customer service by email
at [email protected]
Thanks for using PayPal!
I am also including the link for the security tips on our site.

A user also sent me something else that is something to be aware of (not sure that this is part of the other issue)

If you have any doubt about a link you are clicking on, please simply log in to PayPal by going to PayPal.com. Any payments made to your account will be reflected in your transaction log.
