Certainly agree it looks dodgy for a number of reasons.
Be worth logging into your Paypal account direct to make sure your account is ok, not sure but I think Paypal may have some sort of system where you can report these fraudlant e-mails.

Yes, there is a reporting system for Paypal.....
as a point of interest... Paypal do not send messages addressed  "Dear Member".

[#4]

Reported it to spoof@paypal.com as per site.
Logged into account normal way via eBay link and all details look fine 

[#5]

It's a clear fake.
As Shutter said the dead give away is "Dear Member,".
Paypal emails always refer to its members by name.

@nadger, Paypal normally act very quickly to spoof emails and from my experience they will send you a message confirming the spoof so you know.

I have just forwarded one like this to ebay last week,the more who send it on to ebay the better.

Rather than this being a phishing email to get you to reveal your account info, this message is enticing you to open a zip'ed 'document' which in reality is a virus.  As a result I suspect Paypal won't be particularly interested...
I get loads of this type of email - If it contains a zip file, bin it.  If it contains a link and the URL bears no relationship to the supposed sender then bin it.

Every email I ever get from Paypal always starts with Dear <Real Name>.
They've never once addressed me as member, user, subscriber etc.

[#10]

Just had an email from PP today, it starts off by addressing me by my full name.
It has all the usual graphics AND the statement saying that PP will always address you by your full name.
