Today I received a fake message pretending to be from PayPal Security
Center. The most intersting thing is that I don't even have a PayPal
account.

quite common. i am supprised its your first one.

I usually receive about two paypal & ebay "messages" per week, and a dozen
or so bank notices from all over the world.

(plus the obligatory dozen nigerian/irakian/laos/other scams per day. Not
counting duplicates of the same one)

This address has been active for a year and a half, and has been used to
post to about four of the security mailing lists I'm subscribed to.

So, be patient. You'll have your fill quickly.
