THESE SCAMMERS SHOULD BE FOUND OUT ! is it worth contacting google to see if the IP Address can be traced? i have informed both SKYPE AND PAY PAL phishing departments I think this one will catch some out! despite the spelling mistakes

I'd reccomend reporting them to PayPal and Skype, also your email provider so they can hopefully ban his IP Address.

If I ever get these I always go to their website and try find their logs, quite easy if they don't use an SQL Database to store them.

Always remember to check your address bar if you're directed anywhere from an email!
