I received an email earlier today, the second one of these phishing attempts to land in my inbox this month, with the following message... "Account Message: Recently, $910.45 was logged with a new profile. If not yours, reach out at (805) 500-8413. If fine, you may ignore. Auto pending bill accepted from this account. Your New Account added you to the Crypto Wallet account." The last time, I reported it to a customer service rep at PayPal using the actual PayPal phone number and not the one listed in the body of the email. She recommended that I forward it to the PayPal security team that time, so I did the same again. But I am growing more and more concerned about these kinds of attempts, because apart from the phone number, the rest of the email looks completely legitimate, from the email address to the logos to the links at the bottom.
