Many times we will get an email stating that a particular account has been frozen because someone has gained access to an account we have.

In order to remedy this they ask you to click the link provided and re-enter all your details so that this can be fixed.

Fixed my As#


All they will do is once you have entered all your necessary account and password details they will they begin the process of taking what they can this would include any money you have along with other information you have in your account that they could either use now or later when they need.

As I mention in my recent post https://my.wealthyaffiliate.co... that many members here would already be aware of such scams but my main concern is for those who are not aware that this could occur to them and there are many who fall victim mostly because the emails many times can look official and they may believe this is the real deal and click their links.

This training is about PayPal and how to recognize some details that do not or would be used by PayPal.

I have had a few of such emails from many places but over the last 4 months about 5 from these so called PayPal organizations each time I have reported this to PayPal for them to take action.

Should you get any such email under no circumstances open any of their links and especially don't enter any details if you have opened a link.

However if you already have clicked a link or given details then further in the training I will let you know on what actions to take with PayPal.

Hi Andre, good reminder and a very helpful tutorial. I was always told a company will use your name, if not it was a scam. Thank you for taking the time to make this training.

Incredibly importation information, Andre. I had one such email the other day and forwarded it to spoof@paypal.com. Whenever I receive an email from any payment platform, I never open them and simply go to the website itself.

Thank you for the heads-up for all of us.

That's is the best way Sue I only opened the email, not the links for this purpose and for the training otherwise it is just forwarded to PayPal.
