I got 4 emails yesterday; 2 from Yahoo and 2 from PayPal asking me to verify my account by sending my username and password AND my bank account and credit card info. I obviously knew that this was a scam from the get-go, but don't be fooled and send in your info. The email originates from an address in Russia (http://admitry2005.wsh.ru/) and the reply for the PayPal email is support@verifyPaypal.com - an address that is not owned or run by PayPal. The emails look authentic and very convincing, but do not be fooled and send in your info to these scabs, please. Just thought you'd all like to know, especially since a lot of us use PayPal in the Markeplace. Laurie
