PayPal phishing – has your account been temporarily limited?

PayPal has been targeted by an attack which uses the subject line “Your account has been temporarily limited!” and claims to come from what appears to be an offiicial PayPal address. PayPal is constantly working to ensure security by regularly screening the accounts in our system. The emails are bogus, and the headers are forged – all with the intention of stealing information from you. PayPal customers are proactively protected against this attack, and PayPal is proactively protecting against this type of phishing. The email and the form don’t really come from PayPal, and entering your confidential information into the form will only go to cybercriminals.
