Hi dave ,
I have recieved that type of e mail a long time ago and paid the price :-( so now my rule is , if i dont recognise the e-mail address, or I dont know who its from , i delete it without opening it , unfortunately you cant be to careful these days.

I had my PayPal account, hijacked as well as my eBay user account. Luckily I had no money held there. Emptied it a few weeks before.

I used to get emails from P.Pal.....filtered them out now.
