Do You Get This PayPal Fraud Warning Message...

Mint-Tree · 01-31-2009, 11:59 AM

Hi there,

Don't know if you get this or not, but I just check my SPAM folder in Gmail and open up a PayPal Instant Notification of Payment email and got this warning message from Google:

"Warning: This message may not be from whom it claims to be. Beware of following any links in it or of providing the sender with any personal information. Learn more >> http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&ctx=mail&answer=8253"

Anyway, I check the sales record, and it turn out that it a legit purchase from one of my customer/warrior

.

LOL.. just want to let you know that there's a 'false-positive' automatic PayPal fraud detection in Gmail.

Best regards,

~Mint Tree~
P.S. Of course, you should NEVER click a link in these paypal IPN email to "login" to your account AND always double check to see if the sales notice is legit in your database

I have never received anything like that before. That seems very unusual. It will interesting to see if anyone else has received this same message.

I think Google was on the fritz last night/this morning - claiming every site wasn't safe for your computer. I wouldn't be surprised if that spread to Gmail as well.
