Hehe that was just easy for hacker.... however it clearly mentioned in by Paypal that they don't sent any mails but still some members are not aware of that.
That is what is the problem nick. Paypal does send in e mails. I there is a transaction from a debit card or a new user they send you confirmation e mails and when you click on they ask for your password for confirmation. There is a way to recognise these e mails. When you move your mouse over the link you will clearly see www.paypal.com/so...on like that but phising e mails ar different, they will not have the original domain name that is how it can be recognised
