One can differentiate between a real and a spoofed PayPal invoice by checking the email address from which the invoice is sent. A real PayPal invoice will be sent from the official PayPal email address, while a spoofed invoice may come from a similar, but not identical, email address. Additionally, be wary of invoices that request payment in cash or crypto, as this is not typical of PayPal. Always verify the details of the invoice and the sender before making a payment.

And these scams aren't just limited to fake invoices - we even got a fake text message from PayPal support while researching this article.
