Just read this and an email came in supposedly from PayPal.  I forwarded
it to spoof@paypal.com.  Funny thing is that I have received these
before and haven't had a paypal account for a long time.

The easy way to tell if these are legit?

1.  Did the email come to the email address you use for PayPal/eBay?  
Or was it one of your other email addresses?
2.  Click on the link in the email and look at where the site takes 
you. Usually the embedded HTML link in the email will look legit, but 
the URL in the address field of your browser will change to something 
else.
3.  eBay/PayPal has NO REASON to ask for your user/pass or anything 
else for that matter.
4.  All emails from eBay/PayPal will ask you to "login" to your 
account.  To do this, go to http://ebay.com or http://paypal.com  NEVER 
USE THE LINK IN YOUR EMAIL TO LOGIN!
