Beware!! Paypal scam

[cfind]

I know there are tons of these out there, but I received one today that would have fooled me if not for the fact that I keep track of all incoming and outgoing payments.

This is the email I got:

The email unopened:

Usually it's email with some ebay member asking where his DVD player is or a "paypal" update that requires you to long in, but this one was very legit looking.
I didn't click on the links, but I did check my paypal account directly through a new window and no such payment was received.

Just thought I better throw this out there just in case....

Give it a day or so, you will probably receive an email asking to refund the payment made to you as it was made to you by mistake.

Ive seen those plenty.
