Paypal will never send you a link to click on. Thay say to type the url directly into the address window. Anything else is spam and a scam. Good luck.

Yeah, ignore it. Most likely, some of the thousands of SPAM-bots have harvested your e-mail address and are sending tons of bogus alerts, hoping that you'll be scared enough to click on a link and actually enter your account information.
They are PHISHing bigtime!!
You can forward suspicious Ebay messages to spoof@ebay.com for verification.

Someone other than Ebay or Paypal is trying to trick you. Don't give them any personal information or numbers of any kind.

It's spoof mail. They send it to everyone. They're trying to get your sign on information and credit car number. I have a friend whos eBay account was taken over this way.

Yes, I believe its Spam. Delete Immediately or suffer the consequences. Alternatively, contact Ebay about this email and see if they say its genuine

DO NOT REPLY TO THEM OR CLICK THE LINKS!
They are trying to trick you into giving you your account information so then can steal your money.
