Flagged Paypal Account
Yet another phishing scam claiming to be part of security measures to ensure only the recipient has access to their account. The sender tries to fool the recipient by threatening suspension of the account until the user enters their details. You are directed to a bogus web site to fill in your details which will place your login information in a database, giving the sender access to your account. Online stores will never ask you to send them your login name and password.
