Has anyone received a message from this company via PayPal? They said I paid !34.76 Unfortunately, I clicked on the link to Cancel, but no screen appeared.  Chat with Sara was not helpful.  What could I be at risk for?  Virus?  Information leaked from PayPal.  It looked so authentic?

I received the same email on Dec. 17th...I thought it funny that someone would give you a link to cancel, and the English grammer wasn't great...so I logged on to my account to be sure that a charge had not been made against it.  Since none had, I contacted PayPal and got the mail address to report suspected fraudulent behavior (spoof@paypal.com).  I reported it, and have checked twice since, and the charge was never put through my account. 

 

I hope you don't get a charge from these people.

If it had a small link ( or button to click on ) and it said something like this woulkd fix the problem , or cancel your account after clicking on the button ( or the link ,, I had a button to click on that would SUPPOSE to fix my account problem that was SUPPOSE to have?? 

 

anyway , I also noticed the spelling mistakes in the Email and the grammer that was used. ( Not a very professional Email letter at all. And finally ( and most importantly ) I checked the sender's Email address. If it does not end properly with -->(Paypal.com) , then you know it is fake.

Plimus is not the problem, some scammers are just using their name.

 

Don't click on any links in emails to login to ebay or paypal. Always type it in the browser.
