I received a couple of “Notification of payment received’ with a PayPal Balance Summary a short while ago. The content itself appears to be a copy of a PayPal email sent to an Australian user. Links all look OK except it has the email address of the recipient which isn’t obviously correct.
The attachment is a zip file “PayPal_balance_Summary.zip” which contains malware.
You should immediately delete these emails.
If you need to check your PayPal balance you should use your browser and log on. Always treat emails with suspicion and don’t click on links.
