Be careful... This thing had me fooled, but luckily I don't have a Paypal account.
Below is the web site I was directed to....Sorry I haven't figured out how to post a link yet.
The link in the e-mail was "paypal.com/xxxxxxxxxx..(I deleted the e-mail, and don't remember the full address)
When I checked my history this is the address that gets you there.....What ever you do if you go to the site. Warning
DO NOT LOGIN http://www.hymca.or.kr/bbs/ver.ph

Not Found
The requested URL /bbs/ver.ph was not found on this server.
Apparently they already caught it and removed it

For some reason there is a "p" missing from the end of the address in my first attempt .

If you're using Mozilla or Mozilla Firefox, to avoid phishing websites do the following:
1) in the address bar type in "about:config"
2) look for the entry "network.enableIDN", double-click the entry to change it to "false".
3) close your browser and re-open it. Phishing websites that use international domain names (show up as &somethingsomething; or %2F %83 in the address bar) will not work.

It went to a blank page. I wonder if they will like that?

Good tip Brandon, most people should know to look for the lock at the bottom and verify it is the correct site by looking at the address bar, but for a lot of people, they dont do that so this would be good for them.

Another good point skline... Always check the certificate if you're connecting to a site through SSL (https:// in the addy bar).

The link in the e-mail was "paypal.com/bin....Don't remember the rest, but the address in the browser address bar matched it. I called Paypal using the phone number I got from the fake site to find out what was going on.
I was a bit paranoid because when I was on vacation in California in April someone got my Visa number and charged up $800 to my account gambling online, and it was billed through paypal.
The text of the e-mail said that someone was trying to access my Paypal account using a different ip address. I was worried that someone somehow got ahold of my new Visa number again, and had set up a Paypal account with it.
Man....This world is full of thieves!

One good tip from Paypal is that they will always address you by name, and most of the phishing sites will address you by email. Now I just forward to spoof@paypal.com and delete. If I feel there is any issue with my account then I log in to my account from Paypals website and I double check.
