i just received this email, and i dodn't order anything from them, or any body else. and this is for a manual for some PDA. pretty steep for a book...

i went to my paypal account and nothing was there.

but when you click the "dispute transaction" it send me here. http://globida.com/pps/ppss/uncofirmedbyuser/init.htm witch look to me like a fake paypal page. beware of this scam. you should not put your information on that page...

It's a phishing scam. They're looking for you to click on "Dispute Transaction", then you'll be redirected to a bogus Paypal site where you'll be asked for your user ID and password, and bingo! You've just given them access to your account.

If you hold your cursor above the button, you'll see the bogus site name in the status bar at the bottom of your browser.

Report it to Paypal.

i clicked and went to their page and enter a bogus email and password, then on the next page they ask me for all my information. name, address, SSN and credit card number. i sent an email to paypal and we'll see what they'll do about it...

Interesting. I did a domain look up for the "globida.com" domain that the links are sending you to, and found that the domain is registered to someone in Israel, and that the domain is hosted on GoDaddy. Paypal is located in San Jose CA.
