For many years I use PayPal; I just received this email:
Something made me more suspicious than I usually am so I moved the cursor to the "Verify Your Account" button. And YES, that button translates to a shortened link - as you can see in the second red square.
Why would a well reputed company like PayPal ever use a shortened link?
I admit, the email looks convincing and even sort of professional.
Before I hit the Delete button in my email program, I took above screen shot for this blog post.
Stay safe!
