I'm now getting emails from Paypal asking me to update my account details - always occurs just after I've purchased something.

Interesting that when you look at the detail of the email (in the header) that the path is never back to Paypal...

Just goes to show that you should never reply to any of these

I won't even reply to a "won" from ebay via the embedded link - always go back to ebay/paypal using the correct url and access that way
The fraudsters are getting more clever all the time...

I've received one of these about 10 days ago at my home email (not used for YD). Again, no personal names in phishing email, yet PayPal will ALWAYS use your name on genuine emails.

The above bit I've bolded is good practice.
