You guys received an email with the latest scam using Paypal? The little b*stards send a legitimate money request through Paypal to you, so if you login to your actual Paypal account it will show there, but with a custom message on the request with something along these lines (this is it had on mine): "Fraudulent Activity Found In Your Account , Amount £869. 99 GBP Has Been Debited From Your Account For A Purchase Of ARGOS GIFT CARDS, If It's Not You Reach Us Immediately @ +44-800-368-7647"

Looks legit as it comes from Paypal correct email as it is a legitimate money request, it also shows in my "Transaction".

I mean the solution is simple "Decline" the money request. But seen on the news plenty have fallen for it!
