From: "Gary W. Smith" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Hello,
I received a typical paypal email today and wanted to ask this question
of the group before looking too deep into the matter. I normally get at
least one a day in my personal account. This is normal. Two weeks ago
I setup a new account for purchasing stuff through my company. This new
account is in the form of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Not a name the
end user would guess real easily. I have setup the email address
through paypal but have yet to use it for the purchase of anything.
<<jdow>> Gary, you need to wake up from your fevered dream about that
name not being easily guessed. Were I trying to spam that and many
variants of it would be names I would try.
Today I received a 139 point paypal spam to this new account. Is there
any possibilities that these email lists are originating from within
paypal? I have yet to approach paypal regarding this. Every time I
<<jdow>> Read them carefully. See where they direct you to go. I'd be
really surprised if any of them actually point back to PayPal, unless
you elected to have PayPal send you mailings of offers and such nonsense.
