All you need to do is hover your mouse over the link and see that it isn't pointing to the real paypal site. Report the actual link to spoof@paypal.com

yes unless you act fast. change your password asap to something totally different and report to paypal what you did. if you have access to the email in a sent folder then do that too. paypal, ebay, your bank, etc will never ask for personal account info. never click these links because they can also upload an infostealer or keytracker into your computer as well and get your info that way too.
