Phishing or Fake PayPal Website - "www.validation-secure.com"

Remember, any attempts to sign into the fake or phishing website (validation-secure.com) with your PayPal username and password, will sent your username and password to the scammers behind the scam, who will use it to gain access to your account. So, never click on a link to sign into any of your online accounts. Always go directly to your online accounts, by typing the website address in your web browser address bar and clicking the “Go” button or pressing the "Enter" key on your keyboard.

For example:

If you want to sign into your PayPal account, type "www.paypal.com" in your web browser address bar and click the "Go" button or press the "Enter" key on your keyboard. Once you are on the website: "www.paypal.com", sign in from there or navigate to the sign-in page.

Always ensure that your web browser address bar looks like the image below when you are visiting PayPal's website:
