PayPal always use your name in correspondence so if your name isn't on the message - ignore it!

Thanks Tommo, thats saved me from an embarrassing adventure...................

wouldnt have mattered though because my lucks changed, a very nice chap from Nigeria is putting over £75million pounds into my account for 2 days and I'll receive over £1million for my trouble, I just need to send him a paltry £90 to cover the administration, easy peasy

theres no issues in following a link in an email, its adding all your bank details or passwords thats the issue, have good AV and firewall with a dusting of common sense and you'll have no issues
