Has anyone had e.mails sent from Paypal !! which has a virus attached- I take it is just a con from someone so you open up your attachment, I`v had three in the last two days saying my account is going to be closed unless I follow their instructions to update it etc- just a warning to everyone

Don't open it, but save that email.
Go to the Paypal site and look for the fraud reporting link and send it to them.
They will track it from there.

You can also forward the email to "spoof@ebay.com". EBay owns PayPal. You will receive a response from eBay about the email after you forward it.
Beware of many hacker spoofs re: PayPal and eBay to gain access to your personal account info.
