Background: paypal.me was part of a service launched last year for paypal users to create a subdomain link which you could use to give customers payment details as well as verify that they are sending their money to the right account. Ref: http://time.com/money/4019127/paypa.....venmo-payment/

A lot of artists had begun to link their customers their paypal details as a paypal.me link and today those using F-Secure Web security products were faced with a warning that the site was harmful. This led to some thinking the links where falsified or that paypal itself had been compromised.

This was not the case. This was a mistake by F-Secure and subsequent checks proved that paypal.me was clean. These kinds of false positives a very common.

F-Secure Security Labs promised the site has been verified to be clean and the appropriate rating is now updated. The updated rating will take effect in the next database update cycle and they apologize for any inconveniences caused.
