BEWARE - "Paypal" scam

[Chesand]

I have just received the third email of three over the last two weeks purportedly from Paypal.
One said I had paid something to a "firm" unknown to me and the others said I had placed orders with two different companies again unknown to me and for goods that I would not have ordered anyway even if I knew what they were.
They have different "Paypal" email addresses and of course they want me to reply.

Forward the emails thru to Paypal. They like to know every about every fraudulent email.

I have done now but had to find the email address. If anyone needs it, it is phishingatpaypal.com.au

I have received similar emails in the past few days also.

That one makes me laugh, on average I receive 3 a week from that scammer, I dont have a PayPal account. ITunes, the scammer says my account is suspended, funny, just purchased a tune, scammers from all the major banks suggesting I need to change my banking details. I dont do internet banking.

Latest scammers are actually ringing homes now, ask you to log onto your computer, saying there is something wrong with it, once logged on they go through the usual speal of deceiving to catch the unsuspecting to reveal their personnal details, answering machines are good for taking the load.

Lots of unsavory low lifes out there blokes.

Hi All,
Thank you both for those addresses.
Could have done with them 18months ago, but pp didn't want to know me, & I lost my $23, not much I know , but it was the principal of the thing.
To late now, I dare say.

Got a call asking me to log into my computer. Supposed to be from my provider, Verzion.

I asked, "Which one? " It was all down hill from there.
