Deceptive PayPal email

This email just received really looks official, as if from PayPal:

PayPal phishing

Checking the From address looks legit, service@paypal.com, but then the To address is the first clue that this is not really from PayPal. A real email from PayPal would have:

  • Proper To address
  • First and Last name
  • A transaction date that isn’t today
  • A description of the item purchased

Stay vigilant, and please review email details carefully, especially when they are requesting money and prompting you to click a Button or hyperlink.

Enjoy your Thanksgiving Day with friends and family this week.
