Ive translated it in Google from the original German.
It looks authentic with Pay Pal headers and footers.
Ive deleted the link at the bottom.

I have been getting this scam in english for years.
Typically they are addressed 'Dear Paypal user' or similar.
I ignor them all.
if I get one addressed to me directly I log in independantly, - NEVER clicking the link, - and see if I actually need to do anything.
You must have a very clean email if you have never had this one before!

I get ones similar to this, too, but they don't come in on my PayPal email address so I know that they're scams.

I had a similar one last week
"We have noticed a pattern where you, or someone else, has logged into your paypal account from 2 different locations - due to this your account is now on hold"
The funny thing was, I had just done this and logged in at home instead of work - so I panicked a little.
It was fake, but a bloody good guess!

I had this last week but they didn't use my paypal email address.
