Today I received a new PayPal spoof email, here it is:
---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: service <srvt@webssl.com>
Date: 2009/7/30
Subject: New Message
To:
We regret to inform you that

We apologize for the

This is the worst case of spoofing I have ever seen, but unfortunately it probably worked. How to identify that this is a spoof email:
1. PayPal never sends out information asking for your login, password or credit card information.
2. The senders email address
3. Look at the url the website directs you to (http://www.tcpsearch.com/_cv/www.paypal.com/sign-on/") not a paypal url.
If you think you received an email that is a spoof, send it to spoof@gmail.com.
