Phishers get personal

How wonderful this is: I got an email last week from pay pal saying I had a request to change my password. which I never did. I then proceed to call them, and they stated it was a an error on their end, some glitch that sent it out to everyone.

Then two days later, I get two emails stating my account was going to expire and needed to change it. Of course I was supicious and alerted pay pal again. This was a phishing attack and know now why they were trying to het my information. Stupid pay pal may just lose me because their too dumb to relize what thiefs are trying to break into customers accoutns; Posted by: RIAAsucks Posted on: 05/26/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
