RE: [NF] Is anyone getting emails from apple saying that your account was hacked?

Michael,

No, but lots from "Paypal" saying that there is an unresolved item on the account and that the account may well be restricted until it is sorted out.

I looked at the headers and they originate NOT from Paypal but the stupid thing is that the links on the Email message actually are LIVE Paypal links so I can't see the reason for the email as it never sends you back to a "harvesting site" to get your login details so what is the point? I did send the email off to Paypal and they responded in the affirmative that it is a SPAM email and they were looking into it, so I've done my bit!

This doesn't look like a phishing scheme and the headers look good.  

Anybody else?
