The post warns that hovering over links is not a foolproof phishing defense: scammers exploit PayPal’s legitimate emailing and invoicing features (passing DMARC and using real paypal.com links) to send fake invoices and then steer victims to fraudulent call centers via included phone numbers; users should instead verify any unexpected invoices directly on the official site or via known-good contact methods, never relying on details within the suspicious message.
