Protip: Always hover over links and see their destination in the bottom left corner of your browser before clicking them

It's in your spam because the from address does not match up with the server. You can manipulate the from address easily but it will always go into spam.

Not always

I've had a fake paypal email magically appear in my inbox a year ago. Normally it would go to the spambox but these spammers probably used some sort of exploit to do it.

Before opening the thread, I though it was a real Godaddy scam. Always look at the address in your browser's address bar before interacting with any site or giving your details. Some spammers are so tricky that they use fake urls that you won't be able to distinguish from the real urls if you don't look carefully.

Godaddy is the worst online company in the world, you guys shouldn't be using them anyways.
