Is this spam?

[Furton]

Long time to see folks, just a quick question before I get back to this increasingly hectic life of mine

Is this e-mail spam? I've recieved it twice now and have ignored it but would like confirmation that it is spam

This is spam/wire fraud, yes. PayPal always address members by their real names ni any email correspondence they deliver.

One thing I'd like to know is, did the original link actually point to the URL indicated above? Most of the time, these links divert recipients to domains not controlled by PayPal, but mask themselves as genuine PayPal domains.

Heh, there is a similar one coming from eBay also. I don't have an eBay account so I knew right away that was a spam to trick the unsuspecting into releasing their account details. I just hope that not too many fall for these lowlife tricks.

I was going to say **** (rhymes with spam) but it is censored
