Phony PayPal E-mail Scam

This is the third time in as many days that I have received this phony e-mail that looks like it's an official PayPal e-mail. I do have a PayPal account. I didn't fall for it, though. I had heard about this particular scam over on Computer Cops forums. I would never send information like this via e-mail anyway. I forwarded the e-mails, with the complete headers to PayPal's security division. I hope that no one falls for this.
