Ok Im good now I just sent all my info along with my SSN birth date adresse and DNA swab.
 
I got one of those too, i also got one from ebay and yahoo as well... its been just recently too!
 
If you look at the email properties it is some guy in Estonia... When you go to the website is www.paypal.jqyyfl something or other .com . The guy must have a bit of HTML knowledge or maybe a bootleg Hotmetal pro cd.. Funny thing is that after checking it all out and notifying Paypal security about it, I went to type Paypal into the address bar but it autocompleted to the other link. I typed in my password and hit enter then immediately realized what I did so I went to the real paypal next and changed my login. Then I cleared the history from IE and deleted all cookies and files.
