Dear PayPal Customer,

 

At PayPal, we take security very seriously.

As many customers already know, Microsoft Internet Explorer has significant

'holes'

or vulnerabilities that virus creators can easily take advantage of.

 

At PayPal, we maintain your personal information and data according

to strict standards of security and confidentiality as described in the Terms

and Conditions

that govern your use of this site. Online access to your account portfolio is

only possible

through a secure web browser.

 

In order to further protect your account,

we have introduced some new important security standards and browser

requirements.

PayPal security systems require that your computer system is compatible with our

new standards.

 

This security update will be effective immediately. Please verify your

information.

Failure to do so may result in your account being compromised.

Now the question is do people really fall for this bullshit? :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

apparently yes Mac .. but there are a lot of idiots out there you know .. well of course you do, you have thrown most of them out of the door ... :-)

Well I just signed up so I now know my details are secure.

PMSL you not far wrong there Chris;)

 

However I really find it hard to believe that people would click onto that link and stick all their account details on it.

I have had an email from them saying that they cant access my Ebay account to update their records???

Like you said trev. Do they really think we are stupid.

I just dump 'em.

It is hard to believe isn't it .. I mean you only have to take a look on ebay to spot a ****er trying to rip you off .. but it happens all the time ... beyond me mate ... I don't know how these people get away with it ...

 

Ohhh sorry I do, because of 'It won't happen to me syndrome' people are far to trusting, GOD knows why, I'm not.

 

shame really, maybe some people deserve it????

 

well, if they are that stupid?

i get these emails from so called paypal about 3 times a week

,,

pain in the arse,,

 

send it to ebay as always , but still get them do they think i will be more stupid next time they ask ,, maybe there waiting for me to come home drunk one night,, oh message from paypal, ,, better reply,, lol...................................................just for reference, but im guessing you no this anyways , best way to tell is they always start with dear customer,, if it is really them they will no your name, even so i still wouldnt give bank details ,,,
