PayPal Phishing Scam - Please to Check Your Account - Account Info replacement

The email message below: "Please to Check Your Account," which claims that the recipients' can now replace all their security information and change their passwords for their Paypal accounts, is a phishing scam.

Any information submited on the fake and phishing website will be sent to the cyber-criminals, who will use it to hijack the recipients' accounts. Persons who have already fallen victim to the phishing scam should change their PayPal passwords immediately and check their accounts for any discrepancy.

    Hello,

    Just received (Jun 10, 2016) a message from "<support@storepedia.org> on behalf of PayPal, Inc." entitled "Your Account Has Been Limited" asking me to login to my PayPal account and "provide the information associated with your account". Caveat emptor!

      Only go directly to www.paypal.com to sign into your account.

    Got an email from this exact same address (support@storepedia.org) except this one was titled 'CS Notifications' and went on about there being a problem with my Paypal account and that the account 'may get banned due to infrequent logins', before asking me to login once to update my payment preferences.

      Got the same thing from adreas@paespol.com
