Before I even read the email, something in the subject tipped me off this was a scam.

See if you can spot it..

PaypaI is Paypal's sister. LOL

Funny thing is when you click the link it says paypal.com but actually goes to something like paypalsecurity or some other bogus domain.

I havent decided yet whether its the spammers getting more and more stupid, or them thinking the email public has gotten more and more stupid, or an insane combo of both!

I've been getting those for a few days.

The text is actually an image and not text. I looked at the e-mail source code and the URL is not a web address, not sure what it is, I'm guessing some kind of PC virus.

It actuall leads here: http://211.47.191.125:199/%63%67%69/...78%2E%68%74%6D

Then take off all the crap and look where it goes: http://211.47.191.125:199

Looks like they are trying to scam everyone.

Take off the port number and you get a page in Asian.

crazy it is almost as bad as that Yahoo thing did you all see that? I was a complete log in page like you get at yahoo then when you enter the username and password it does nothing but let the person running the site have access to your mail and or whatever else they can get.

Crazy stuff.
