I just received an email with the same reply-to address but a different phone number:"Please do not reply to email. For support call your Dedicated Support Team at 1-802-755-5858"It just says that:We Confirm your recent changes in your account security and recovery options.You have Removed your recovery phone number and email from xxxxxxx-xxxxx.x*xYour new updated email for password recovery is micili.recover-rabber.comI suspect it might be related to a PayPal scam.
This is a scam, I have never used PayPal, don't have an account. I called the number only to find out that it is something they set up to convince me and I haven't ordered anything. I am contacting PayPal. SCAM
I received an email today from PayPal. I have never used Paypal so I figured it was a scam.
