RE: [OT] is this a fake paypal? what the site can do to you? by "James Newtons Massmind" .

I don't mean to be... Mean. Or to question your intelligence... I'm sure there must be a reason for this, and I genuinely want to know how anyone could think that was a link to PayPal. I honestly want to know. I'm trying to understand how people get sucked into these things, so I can try to help. What in that link makes you wonder if it could be real? Is it the redirect.to.paypal.com part? Is it not understanding that domains start from the left just after the ? Is it having seen other links for advertisements where there is a redirector to count the number of clicks? What part of the information that everyone gets from PayPal ("always start with https://www.paypal.com ") is not being understood? Again, I'm not trying to be a jerk, I just can't think of a better way to ask these questions. --- James. > {Original Message removed}
