Buyer (Seller) Beware!!! (PayPal users)

If you buy or sell on Pay Pal wanted to alert you to a scam going around. You might get an email that says it is from PayPal with the subject: Limited Account Access. This email arrived in my inbox today and it has been a known scam since 2004!!! Read more about it: http://www.millersmiles.co.uk/identitytheft/paypal-email-scam.php Luckily, I knew not to fall for it - I went to my Pay Pal account and everything was fine. I've been advised in situations like this to go to my Pay Pal account before doing anything. I did report it to Pay Pal as well. If you use Firefox, like I do, you will get a FRAUD message and it will stop you from going any further. I'm not 100% sure, but IE may not catch it.
