Dear ********
,


We recently noticed one or more attempts to log in to your PayPal account
from a different IP address.


If you recently accessed your account while traveling, the unusual log in
attempts may have been initiated by you. However, if you did not initiate
the log ins, please visit PayPal as soon as possible to check-up your
account information:


https://www.paypal.com/uk/


Thanks for your patience.


Sincerely,

PayPal Team

Thanks and +rep

If you're worried, go into your bbrowser and type the PayPal address manually and check your account information.

It's not a signed email, meaning that the person who created it wanted to cover their tracks, all unsigned email gets shoved into Junk mail usually, it's not from paypal as far as I can tell, somebody is trying to Phish you. The email was sent from an incorrect mail server. It was sent from redseam.net pretending to be paypal.com
