I have a donating thing going on my website, and I get an email everytime someone donates. This morning I get an email saying that someone donated $20 to me, but the Subject line isn't filled out like usual (usually it has a transaction number or something in it). So I opened the email, it all looked good but usually there is a table or something on the right side. The table usually says things about protecting your account info. Not only that, the donation was from someone I have never heard of (all others were) and the email had a Receipt ID, which none of my previous ones had, so flags went up.

I head over to the paypal site manually to check, and sure enough there was that donation. Did someone just donate to me without using my donate button? (maybe Paypal uses different forms for different ways of sending?)

I'd say that's what happened; emails from Paypal do usually have a transaction #. Was the email from Paypal or an individual?

Well every email I have got for donations have had the FROM address being the one that sent it... this one is no different.
