I received an identical email 12/13/20. If my malware hadn't given me a warning I would have gone to the site to "cancel the order." Tried going to PayPal's site to pursue it, but there was no charge. I am grateful to have seen this warning!

Can't PayPal do something about this, you would think that they would want to, since it is a direct use of their supposed "GREAT" reputation.
