Fake e-mails going around quick about verifying your bank/PayPal/etc. account. Do NOT click on any of these. Delete immediately.

I don't even have a Chase bank account. Also, if you see any received emails from .... @ verification.com DO NOT CLICK.

I'm constantly getting these fake PayPal and banking emails, nearly everyday now. Like you said, best to check the sender's email address first. I'd always call the company to double check if you're not sure!

Report them to PayPal it kills them off real quick they get you to forward it to them and they shut down the servers for the scam site.

I've been getting loads of those e-mails the past year or so and now that my eBay account was suspended for not paying $14 I owe to them for selling an item through them, I don't know which e-mails are real and which ones are fake...

Doesn't help that TTG have a topic on downloading spoofing software making it readily available for people to share? Forums/t=7703292/document-doctor-...asily.html
