log into your paypal account through their website, not through any link they have sent you.
It is almost certainly a scam.
ignore it, I had the same thing.

I just checked my paypal account and there has been no transactions in the last 90 days, as ratter said, do not click on any link go to the paypal website.

You have successfully made a payment of GBP 20.37 to Omnyex E commerce DMCC.

This transaction was made using your PayPal account (email address here) on 17/01/16 and the charge will appear on your account statement as a debit by: SKR*Skrill.com.

You have the legal right to cancel your order for items purchased through PayPal for 5 business days after the day you receive them.

I had a similar email yesterday or day before. I've ignored it.
Forward it to [email protected] will deal with it. I've had a few...always international.
I get the same,just forward it to '[email protected]' they will confirm that it is a scam. If you open it there is a link to 'cancel this transaction' if you fall for it they ask for all your bank details 'to make a refund' . You know what will happen next!
had one earlier today, many thanks for the info about forwarding it to spoof
I get loads of these and I don't even have a Paypal account! Chox.
sure scam
do not go near
