Email asks you to confirm/update/verify your account data at PayPal by visiting the given link. You will be taken to a spoof website where your details will be captured for the phishers.
- PayPal never send their users emails requesting personal details in this way.

The REAL URL of the spoof website has been chosen to look very similar to the actual PayPal URL. Do not be fooled!
