I dont know anythings about this and I got email saying

Receipt for Your Payment to Skype


[TABLE="width: 100%, align: center"]
[TR]
[TD="align: left"]3 month subscription
[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]39.00 GBP[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]1[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]39.00 GBP[/TD]
[/TR]
[/TABLE]

Here it tell me that

If you haven't authorized this charge, open a dispute at:

https://www.paypal.co.uk/helpcenter/open_dispute and get a full refund.


I should think bloody well so and taking off my payment without my premission is wrong!

It is scam or what?:o

Have you logged into Paypal (not through the link in the e-mail!!! - that could be a scam) to check whether any payment has been requested?
I suspect the payment has never happened and the mail is just trying to skim your login details.

Its spam, had the exact same email this morning.... DO NOT CLICK THE LINK IN THE EMAIL. If you look at the delivery bit in the email the spelling of ''haven't'' is wrong :-)
 
There are no need to look on spelling: even right here URL reads as "https://www.paypal.co.uk/helpcenter/open_dispute", but link actually points to "http://www.flameandfragrance.co.uk/js/flash/AC_RunActiveContent.html" which rarely happens with legitimate mails, you know.
 
thanks guys

Paypal AFAIR will ALWAYS use your name within any email they send you.

If the content of the Email does not use your name then it will be a scam.
 
you only have to look at the email address it came from to know its not real. Never log into anything that involves money from a link... always go to the website directly yourself.
 
It is a scam email - I received it also, you should report it paypal (forward it to: spoof@paypal.com).

I would also recommend removing the link from your original message.
