For both PAYPAL and EBAY
NEVER NEVER NEVER open the messages outside of the paypal or ebay site -
When I first joined ebay I accidently opened what looked like a genuine ebay message from another member. I automatically clicked on the reply button and it gave me the ebay log in screen. It looked perfectly the same as the genuine ebay log in screen so I logged in.
They stole my ebay user name and password and started selling forged rugby and football tickets. It was only because I logged into my ebay the next morning that I found out. EBAY were brilliant, they suspended my a/c and took action against the seller.
SO BEWARE even opening a simple message from another ebay member in your email can cause you real hassle.
Paypal and Ebay will never ask you to update your details and both have helplines you can phone or email.
Good luck xxxx
