DEBRIEF

Seemed unusual but the included link joined and opened a PayPal like
page. But as a worldly person, this blogger went no further --
expecting headaches from it and believing it a fraud.

Note that it came in the middle of the night; was from the UK PayPal to
an American address; and was testing legitimacy through Turkey? And
the turkey who wrote it in slick con-man style couldn't proof read or
spell investigation [Ivestigation].

The 'whois' info about the outfit also follows the note.

Should you receive one, this blogger recommends confirming it with
PayPal before giving information. It was sent to abuse@paypal.com by
SCOTTMCON just in case. PayPal has not yet answered. Unfortunately it
caused a suspension of my account use, nonetheless, while security in it
is re-checked - citing some unauthorised third-party attempt. At least
no losses for scottmcon but time.
