Paypal question-pin number


Please tell me if the recent request for a debit card including the pin number is legitimate?
Thanks, Ed

There have been a ton of new Paypal, Amazon, and Jury Duty scam e-mails asking for very personal info past just your pin number. I got a Jury Duty e-mail that asked for my Social Security number... Bogus, and Beware!!! If paypal needs your info updated, you'll see their request when you log into your account and use it. I just had my Amex expire, they never sent me any legitimate expiration email. I just had to update it in my payment methods, should I ever need to use it. The first thing that should catch your attention if they DON'T address you by name... like "Dear Paypal User", is always the first give away that it's a SCAM. One false, swift move can cause you 1-2 years of daily grief dealing with Identity Theft... Debit Card, & PIN Ugly... Ouch, Real Ugly as they can clean out your bank account faster then I've typed this!!!
