To date the ONLY response I have received from PayPal is below : How do I know if an email is from PayPal? [ XXXX ] XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, It was great talking to you today. As mentioned during our conversation, here is the additional information on PayPal emails. 

We understand receiving a fake email can be a cause for concern, and we urge you to always contact us if you have any questions about your PayPal account. 

As of XX/XX/XXXX, all emails from PayPal to U.S. accountholders will be sent from a PayPal email address with the domain mail.paypal.com. 

Fake emails, also known as phishing emails, attempt to collect your personal and financial information. These fake emails often link to fake websites that encourage you to enter personal information such as credit card numbers, passport or drivers license numbers, and account passwords. 

Youll know that an email is not from PayPal when : The email uses a generic greeting like " Dear user '' or " Hello, PayPal member. '' We always address you by your first name and last name or the business name on your PayPal account. 
The email requests financial and other personal information. For example, an email from PayPal never asks for the numbers of your bank account, debit or credit card, or drivers license. We also dont request your email addresses, your full name, your account password, or the answers to your PayPal security questions. 
The email includes an attachment or a software update to install on your computer. 
We will never ask you for money in an email, and we will never ask you to send money through XXXX XXXX, XXXX or any other third party money transfer service. 
If you think youve received a fake email, forward it to XXXX. Then delete the fake email from your inbox.
