First I was a little shocking. Wow.. what d.. and naturally I click on that link and brought me to a paypal site. Weird, the URL is not paypal.com, even the pages look exactly the same as paypal pages, but the URL is http://hotel.sklept.pl/blabla

Luckily then I re-check again my gmail inbox, and look at the detail of my email header. And WALAH!! it’s just a stupid phishing mail! yea I smile because I’m glad that I am not trapped by that mail.

That mail was sent by someone who want to steal my paypal password. The original mail from paypal should be something like this
look at the screenshot below

See? on the top right of email, you will see a show detail link. click that and the mail header will expand and show you the detail of the senders.

The original mail from paypal should mailed by paypal.com

Now look at the fake mail below

I hope you guys don’t received that fake email. But anyway, Now you know what to do if you receive that mail! thanks
