This is a known phishing scam. Delete it and do not follow it's instructions.

As a general rule anything with an attachment that isn't from a person you know is dodgy!

There are many PayPal phishing scams out there. Only ever enter PayPal from www.paypal.com, never any link emailed to you.

What catches my attention are the illiterate mistakes. If the grammar and 'speeling' are not correct it is a dead give away!

I get one most days, along with a couple requesting I update my Apple account, and occasional ones from Microsoft.
If I dealt with any of those companies at all it could be quite worrying!

Paypal will always use your name too, not "Dear sir/Madam"

That was the bit that made me chuckle too. If you're going to attempt a scam like this, surely you'd learn to write in English first.

Sad thing is someone will fall for it.

These guys arent running these scams for the good of their health their doing it coz it works the odd time and that's all they need

Yes, especially if you just get one isolated request on its own, very easy to click send .............

I had something on the same lines over a year ago accept the message requested I update my password and account details or it would be closed ,,got the same message twice but my account is still running fine .
Ignore it

If you log onto Paypal it always tells you if it needs info so ignore emails and go direct to website
