Description
email was in spam but was from the official PayPal email address ([email protected]). The email even contained the disclaimer information at the bottom that looks genuine and even says - "Emails from PayPal will always contain your full name." Which this email did NOT contain anywhere. As with the other post - it said my New Account was added to the Crypto Wallet account (which I do not have).
