I regularly get phising atttempts purporting to come from PayPal. Some are very cleverly worded.

I used to get these all the time, and it always confused me because I don't have a PayPal account.
These days I get them from Amazon, as text messages on my cell phone. Usually saying:
Dear [null]:
We are waiting to deliver your package. Please press on this completely, totally innocent hyperlink that will absolutely not take you to a scam website, and type in your credentials so that we can totally not steal your identity and use it to make fraudulent purchases on your behalf.
Love, Amazon.
(or some words to that effect)
