I was already sweating bullets and quivering with terror. Who could have tried to hack into my PayPal account??? In any case, I was grateful for this e-mail from PayPal. I proceeded to follow the instructions. Thank goodness for Hotmail as well, employing Microsofts failproof spam-detecting algorithms; they always brilliantly deliver this type of important e-mail to my inbox rather than accidentally slipping it into my junk mail folder.
