305987 2004-12-20 10:00:00 I've just received an email purporting to come from Paypal asking me to verify that my account has not been tampered with. As I don't think I have a Paypal account, and if I do it hasn't been used for well over a year, I suspect this is a phishing scam.

Has anyone else seen this and can anyone confirm/deny it is a scam?

(Edit)
I've just done a Google (which is what I should have done in the first place) and confirmed it is a phishing scam.

Pretty much 100% scamtastic.
