Comment on PayPal phishing scam coming from paypal.com domain

Comments

Are you sure they’re not just spoofing the address? Check the email headers.

Yup, as mentioned, it was verifiably paypal.com in the very headers. It's the lack of the spoofing that caught me off-guard. But, further below in the thread it appears that any business on PayPal can just send fake invoices powered by the official service@paypal.com domain, so...yeah, that's wild.
