Americans: Your phone number and a map to your house may be online for everyone to see
Google has implemented a new feature wherein you can type someone's telephone number into the search bar and hit enter and then you will be given a map to their house. In order to test whether your phone number is mapped, go to http://www.google.com/ and type your phone number in the search bar with dashes (I.e.: 310-XXX-XXX)and hit enter. NOTE: If your phone number is not publicly listed, you should be fine, but make sure the phone company has your number as nonpublished AND unlisted if you want to prevent people from getting it with 411. If you want to BLOCK Google from divulging your private information, simply click on the telephone icon next to your phone number. You will see a link where you are allowed to REMOVE yourself.

Scam on PayPal customers
Lately, I've received several faked PayPal emails. Those emails ask you to log in at PayPal to verify your account or to verify your email address is still working. They look like official PayPal mails and even contain the warning to only use PayPal links that start with https://www.paypal.com/. These mails contain a link that seems to point to PayPal... but the actual link below the displayed text opens a page on a non-PayPal server that was set up to steal your PayPal account information (http://www.services2-paypal.com/). This server has already been disabled, but if you reacted to any PayPal service message in the past days, change your PayPal password as soon as possible! Paypal will never email you and ask for your password etc. so anyone who does is scamming.
