We at iGuRu having warned our readers many times, we repeat to you once again that you should be very careful with these types of emails. You should read the Url carefully (letter by letter). of the email, as the hackers use similar names but never exactly the same as the official website s.

Also never reply to such emails. The best solution is to go to the official website "paypal.com" and if there really is an issue with your account then they will inform you through there.
