Default Fake Paypal emails, be careful, heres one

Hello everybody, When paypal sends out a email, they allways use hello or dear when addressing you and they use your full name, this is just one of the reasons that got me to pay attention to this email, another one is I did try to withdraw money out the ATM, (it said insuffient funds, it was $20 I was trying to take out, I had over $750 in there), I got this email about 2 days after that, I then called the number at the bottom to fix the problem, they said I had to update my phone number on the site, (which was true, my old number was on there), so these 3 things lead me to beleive that this was a true paypal email, so I gave them the enformation they asked for,..........a day later, my account was cleaned out,.........NOW, I think some websites that you buy stuff from (colon cleanse for me on this one), sells your enformation to people or these people set up fake websites to get your name and information, wait a day or 2 then hit from another direction, I am still trying to figure this out guys, BE CAREFUL everyone.

Hello Norbert Revels,

Our security team noticed a possible fraudulent transaction was attempted using your PayPal Debit Card, so we’ve taken steps to protect you until we can verify the transaction. We're contacting you via email because we weren’t able to reach you at the home telephone number listed on your PayPal account. Until we can verify that this latest transaction was legitimate, we’ve temporarily blocked your Debit Card. We recognize that you may have initiated this transaction yourself. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused, but we’d rather err on the side of protecting you.

If you have not already done so, please call the PayPal Debit Card Security Team at &&&&&&&&&&& if you are in the United States or &&&&&&&&& if you are in Canada , to verify your recent transactions. You’ll need your Debit Card number when you call.

Thanks,

PayPal
