I find myself amused at the emails going around nowadays. The other day, I received an email from 'PayPal' and didn't think much of it till I actually read it.
Dear valued PayPal member:
Identity protection matters. And PayPal works day and night to help keep your identity safe. That's why it has come to our attention that your PayPal account information needs to be updated as part of our continuing commitment to protect your account and to reduce the instance of fraud on our website. If you could take 5-10 minutes out of your online experience and update your personal records you will not run into any future problems with the online service.
However, failure to update your records will result in account suspension.
Once you have updated your account records, your PayPal session will not be interrupted and will continue as normal.
To login to your PayPal account and update your records click on the following link:

Thank You for using PayPal!
The PayPal Team
Boo! Yer not gonna get me with that one! *shakes a defiant fist*
There's another one going around with the subject line, "You have received an e-card from a family member!" or "...from a coworker!", obviously to make people feel safer and think, "Ah, I wonder which one of them sent this!"
