- Confirm your new email address
Dear James Morgan ,
You added a new email address "jamesmorganss@hotmail.com" to your PayPal account, but you're not finished yet. Please take a minute to confirm this email address is yours.
Once you confirm it, you can use this email address to receive payments from friends and family. Plus, you can make it your primary address for all your PayPal business.
Confirm My Email Address
Here's another way to confirm your email address: Log in to your PayPal account at www.paypal.co.uk. Click Confirm email address in the To do box. Enter this confirmation number: 1064-7007-2785-8669- 6537
If you didn't add this email, let us know straight away. It's important because it helps us make sure no one is getting into your account without you knowing.
Yours sincerely, PayPal
Here are the weirdnesses here: 1) This looks exactly like an official PayPal email (the logos do not reproduce here), except 2) I closed my PayPal account last year due to worries about security, and 3) My name's not James Morgan, and 4) There are links here (not reproduced) that take you to a website not affiliated with PayPal.

| I had to go out to my spam folder on the mail server to find this. So far, the spam filter has caught every email of this type. - Quote :
