To beat these scams


Always check any links
(for example, this link
does not have
PayPal.com in the root
domain of the website
link)

https://signin-pyplsecurednotification.com/


FAKE
https://www.paypal.com/us/signin


REAL
Be aware of all text message URLs
And, check the URL of any
website you visit.


As you can see, this
website is impersonating
PayPal as it is not hosted
by PayPal at PayPal.com
As a simple rule, never click
on links from text messages.
