PayPal Spoof Emails Are Bothering Me

I just got another PayPal spoof email.

It starts off like this:
Dear PayPal Customer

This e-mail is a notification of the recent innovations taken by PayPal to detect inactive customers and non-functioning mailboxes.
PayPal never sends out emails to you without using your first and last name.

Then later on in the email you are instructed to click a link to secure your account.

Don't do it.
