Just got a pretty convincing scam email asking me to "confirm my PayPal details". The link goes off to an .ru website.

So watch out!

Zippity: Why not just reply to the nice people at the NZ address?

How do you know that the link goes off to a .ru site?


Link text is legit but link src address is different, lots of noobs fail for it I'm afraid.
