This message ain't from my (Pay) Pal

Thank heaven I learned to read at an early age. Typos jump out at me, especially those made by others (Note - I am still working on reducing my own.) Thankfully, the baddies haven't yet discovered grammar checkers.

 

I received this e-mail today; it looked pretty legit and I have purchased a few things using PayPal over the last couple of months. However, the clues were right there, especially if you're one for details. Can you see what I'm seeing? There are at least ten errors in just this snippet (It goes on.)

 

If only they were all so obvious. 

 

As with all messages, if you receive something like this, read and proceed with caution.
