Generally if you think you may have a problem with a bank or Paypal follow two simple rules
Rule 1- Never click on the email links. Phishers take you to what appears to be a legitimate site and some people never look at the actual address at the top of the browser. And some phishers do a good job of stealing the real site's login page appearance.

Rule 2-Go directly to Paypal or your bank's web page and log in from their page.
