Yakers,
Since we all used to use paypal to get our YAK o bilila for the RPA store or for our Ebay excursions, I am sending this message out to warn of a pfishing expedition going on. I have been querried on a couple of occassions by this fake site asking for me to confirm a paypal purchase made. The intro on the email looks exactly like PayPal'. The problem is it does not begin with my name but began with "Dear PayPal Member,". It is a fake company originating in Canada. Sorry my Canadian friends you have an international scam in your midst. So if you get this querry go up under message click on the window and then click on message source. If it comes out as user(at)mail.tzjt.gov.cn, it is a fake and add it to your spam folder!

The same problem exists with phony Ebay "second chance" and "there is a
problem with your account" messages from Ebay. DO NOT respond to them. If
there is a message for you from Paypal or Ebay it will appear in "My
Messages section of your Ebay account on the Ebay site. In other words if
it comes to you in a email and it is not ALSO in "My Messages" then it's a
scam. All these jerks want is your pass word then they can get your CC
info.

If you have a copy of Front Page (web design software) you can go to
anyone's site and steal parts of it to make you emails look real. A smart
ass guy from China knocked off my site parts list, photos and all, then was
stupid enough to send them to me a email showing me all "his" parts.

Always Yakin,
Doug Sapp
