Dear //////////,

We have reason to believe that at least one of the computers you use to
access your PayPal account may be infected with a computer virus. To make
sure that your account information is as secure as possible, please contact
your computers’ anti-virus provider for additional information regarding
the potential virus, including how to disinfect your computer and how to
help prevent future viruses.

If you do not currently have anti-virus software installed on your
computer, please contact a computer professional for advice on an
appropriate anti-virus program for your computer and installation
assistance.

Once you have installed the anti-virus software and completed a scan please
notify us to have your limitation reviewed. You can contact Customer
Service by logging into your PayPal account and clicking 'Contact Us' at
the bottom of any PayPal page.

Sincerely,
///////
PayPal Account Review Department

Never seen that before. Have you taken their advice and gotten your computer scanned? lol

That is new & odd.

Is this the case of your device?

Seems fishy this e-mail - did you check the headers? the e-mail source? Made sure it's not a scam e-mail?

Forward the message to spoof@paypal.com and they should let you know via email if it's spam or legit.

Make sure you show the full headers on the email when you send it.
