PayPai....PayPal Clone/Scam

Post by Unknown_Terror »

I just recently recieved this email from what i thought was PayPal the popular online payment site.

Said i added a new email addy to my account for PayPal, and wanted me to log in and confirm it,

of course it redirects you to the clone version of the PayPal site which looks exactly the same as the real PayPal site, asks you to log in and, tricks you into putting your Credit Card information in as part of a security check....Sneaky barsteds, i nearly fell for it, I did log in though, but i used the wrong password and it logged me in anyway, whereas on the Real paypal site it says wrong password...

All they done was used an Upper case I so it looked like a lower case L, so it was PayPaI, i instantly got annoyed and started up my email spamming program, for use with junk mail if i'm bored, i'd never spam anyoe i know. sent them 2000 emails...all saying the words "wankers" about 50 times or more.

so....if anyone else wants to do the same and really piss these assholes off..

Don't fall for it guys....like i nearly did.
