Ja, traurig! Die liefern so den #TechBros und #Amex den gläsernen Kunden. Die Idee der #Sparkasse verliert weiter ihre Unschuld. Mal sehen, wann dort #PayPal zum Standard wird? Einfach irre. Aber es gibt Alternativen...

Dass das Betrugserkennungssystem bei #PayPal ausgefallen ist, ist als ein schwerwiegender #Sicherheitsmangel des Zahlungsdienstleisters zu bewerten. Gemessen am Gesamttransaktionsvolumen dürfte ein solcher Vorfall nicht geschehen.

Auch die Krisenkommunikation lässt deutlich zu wünschen übrig, indem unklare Nachrichten an die Nutzer verschickt und keine Hinweise darauf gegeben werden, wie das eigene Konto effektiv geschützt werden kann und ob es vom Vorfall betroffen ist.

There's a really disturbing #Paypal #phishing scam happening right now. Obviously this reads like a typical phishing attempt (bad grammar, a malformed phone number to call, etc), but the official Paypal email wasn't spoofed. It came from PayPal's email infrastructure.

Examining the headers shows that SPF, DKIM, and DMARC all pass. If you have a Paypal account, please exercise caution. Don't click links in these emails. Forward them to phishing@paypal.com.

Please boost for visibility.

Apparently there was a security leak at Paypal, so suggestion to change your password FAST and slap MFA on it if you don't have it yet.
Do note: passwords can't be longer than 20 characters and a hyphen is not allowed.
Hello security...

Oh here's a new #paypal #scam I just got. Comes from a real Paypal email address, with the checkmark and everything! It works by someone creating a developer account on Paypal, naming themselves "A payment of ... is approved, please contact ... if errors", then the account invites other email addresses to become developers. And their "name" gets prominently put into the email subject and body.

Not very clean but it gave me pause for a moment while I figured out "how the hell did they send this from an official paypal.com address???"
