I wish that i'd never used paypal to send money. Every since i used it on here i get a e-mail every few days wanting a confermation or telling me a new e-mail has been added to my account. I never did set up a full time account, i only used it for one time transfer (2 differant times). I never open the e-mails because of what i've read here, just delete and go on. And it probably has nothing to do with pay-pal but i don't know.
does it always show it's from paypal,, if so can you block it
Probably not, I used to get emails asking for confirmation, and I don't even have a PayPal account.
The emails I would like to quit getting are selling Viagra, etc. From a different sender each time so I keep blocking them, but get more from another sender!!!
Did you ever stop to think....and forget to start again?
NEVER respond to any of those emails, just block them, they are what they call spoof emails, and they are just trying to get your info. always go to paypal.com and login to do anything to your account, and to keep check on it. i get them all the time, and been buying ans selling on ebay for 6 years. just ignore them and delete them, although as i said keep a check on your accout periodicaly.

James I get them all the time also, and I have used paypal for about 10 years now. This is what I do and it seems to cut down on some of them. I open them up and then hit the Forward Button and send them to" spoof@paypal.com "and the real paypal site always send me back a e-mail stating it is a scam and they turned it over to there security team to disable that site. Just open them up but never go to any link in the e-mail, just forward it to paypal and let them handle it. Scams and Spams.

I know what your talking about I get those all the time. After I delete them it take about 2 hours before I can close the lid on my laptop.
