Type of a scam: Identity Theft

I received and email stating, "Unusual actively in your PayPal account".

The email read that there unusual activity on my account and that I should login now *through a link provided* that read, Login *here*. I do not have a PayPal acct...

I think they wanted to hack my login as I went to their encrypted page as I went to the PayPal page and then they would have my login or have total access to the account...which I don't have so I do worry about the people who have accounts and wouldn't think about this and go into their link...and be scammed.

Total money lost: $409
Type of a scam: Phishing

I received an email on Nov 5th saying my account was limited and I needed to update my info. So I thought it was a legitimate email from PayPal. Then on Nov7th I noticed $409.90 had been taken out of my account saying PAYPAL. MRPOPULARNO. CAUS. I had not purchased anything online in months. This sounds like the same type scam as I read is being done with AMAZON. They are sending emails that look like a legitimate company. Luckily, my bank worked with me and I am getting my money back

I received this email and immediately tried to contact both PayPal and Wish. Wish was not open because it was the weekend and two attempts trying to call PayPal said that their number was experiencing technical difficulties. I stupidly logged into the email thinking it was PayPal and entered my personal information. Finally was able to contact PayPal a few hours later and was told this was a fraud. Immediately cancelled all of my accounts and contacted my local authorities to see what else I could do.

Type of a scam: Phishing

A man answered my 'vehicle 4 sale' advert with an email which included a suspicious link. The link supposedly went to his PayPal account. What if this link spoofed the real PayPal website where I would be asked to open a PayPal account which might not be real? What if the fake link asked for my personal information, setting me up for ID theft?
