Total scam. I hope no one falls for it.

HINT: If it's in your SPAM folder, it really ISN'T from paypal

I've gotten quite a few of those to my spam folder.

Put your cursor over the link and see what the bottom address bar says..
Not likely that it's the same as what the link shows...

He posted the scam link http://216.20.254.14/cgi_bin/webscr=cmd=_home/

Obviously a phishing email using an ip address url.
