I've had about 20 of them along with many other suspended bank accounts that I don't have.

I had the same email yesterday. Methinks the sender address was a bit of a giveaway

It was Steve...added to the fact that Paypal never send you an email of this nature..Particularly when they haven't even included my name....

I can guarantee about 50 million people have received that email and around 10% will fall for it.
