Dear PayPal Customer,


During our regularly scheduled account maintenance and verification
procedure we have detected a
slight error in your PayPal online account.

This might be due to the following reasons:


1. A recent change in your personal information (ie. change of address,
email address)

2. An inability to accurately verify your selected option of payment due to
an internal
error within our systems.


Please fill in all the details that are required to complete this
verification process.


To do this we have attached a form to this email. Please download the form
and follow the
instructions on your screen. NOTE: The form needs to be opened in a modern
browser which has
javascript enabled (ex: Internet Explorer 7, Firefox 3, Safari 3, Opera 9)


Please understand that this is a security measure intended to
help protect you and your account. We apologize for any inconvenience.


If you choose to ignore our request, you leave us no choice but
to temporary suspend your account.

Sincerely,
PayPal Account Review Department.


Please do not reply to this e-mail. Mail sent to this address cannot be
answered.
