Default Urgent Fraud Prevention Group Notice

Posted By: hankron

Two rules for such emails:

To check on your eBay or PayPal status, do not go through links provided in email. Go to your web browser, type in the site's address ('www.eBay.com'), log on and check status. Through the email links, these scams are trying to get you to go to a false website.

Never feel rushed and always take your time. Do not hurry to 'fix things' asap as the email threatened to close your account in two seconds. If there is a legitimate problem (i.e. your credit card expired and you accidentally forgot to update), eBay and PayPal will always give you minimally days to update. Take your time, and see what's up.
