A very accurate phishing scam with a fake paypal site:

Dear PayPal Member,

As part of our security measures, we regularly screen activity in the
PayPal system. During a recent screening, we noticed an issue
regarding your account.

For your protection, we have limited access to your account until
additional security measures can be completed. We apologize for any
inconvenience this may cause.

This might be due to either of the following reasons:

1. A recent change in your personal information (i.e. change of address,e-mail address). 2. An inability to accurately verify your selected option of payment
due to an internal error within our processors.

Please update and verify your information by checking the link below:
(if you can't open it just copy the link in your internet browser)

We thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Please
understand that this is a security measure intended to help protect you and
your account. We apologize for any inconvenience.


Sincerely,
PayPal Account Review Department
