Benjamin Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I have an email in my in box this morning purporting to come from Pay Pal and confirming that I have made a payment to Skype for an "Online Number". This has gone straight through my Junk Filter.It invites me to click on a live link to "Pay Pal Dispute Centre" if I haven't authorized (American spelling) this charge to get a full refund.Googling Pay Pal Dispute Centre shows that this is a Paypal facility but Googling "(orders@Skype?uk)" , also on the email shows that this is a scam.Beware out there. [:D]Now for a chat with my email provider. [6] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillan Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I would suspect that it did not include your name in the text.The golden rule is if it does not have your name in the text then it is fake. PayPal and other financial services always say they put your name in the text if they contact you.If in doubt check your account but NOT through the link given in the email.
