I also got one, I was 99.9% sure that it was from PayPal. It looked EXACTLY right. I was CONFIDENT that it was from PayPal. But I always make it a practice to go straight to the site instead of following email links. I spent a few minutes on PayPal searching around for whatever it was that the email was alerting me about.... then it hit me that the email was probably fake, and I forwarded it on to eBay.

A year ago, I would have fallen for it completely.
