    Paypal emails will always address you by your full name and never ask for personal info. Delete or forward mails like that to spoof@paypal.com - I get one every few months. Financial URLs are also HTTPS...

    My brother got nailed by one of those scams asking him to verify the information on his e-bay acount. Lucky the credit card charges were covered by the bank.
    Laws should be very serious for these scammers but it seems like they get away with it and do it again.
