I'd double check your account strike to see if any new address have been added. delete em and change your pass if it has

No activity has happened on my account that I can see, it was purely a sppof email. PayPal have been informed... I just hadn't seen that one before so thought I'd put the word out :)

I've gone off paypal completly now, someone bought a laptop from me, they had verified address etc with plenty of feedback, the money cleared to my bank, then a week later paypal took back the money from my bank, saying it was a hacked account. Left me in the blue.
