Guest Anonymous Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 I recently got a REAL email from paypay advising me that my credit card would expire in june. The email gave me the last four digits and the expiration date. These matched my card. Also, the email did NOT provide a link to update info, instead it simply told me to log into my Paypal account and update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 i also get these from "ebay confirmation" wanting to know lots of personal info , including and especially credit card info! Lol; I wish it was actually ebay- ever tried to get ahold of them? Anyway, I delete any and all of that to hell bin: if it is vitally important, you will get it in the mail, or more likely, during dinner via phone. /// Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anonymous Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 I had the same last month. My credit card was expiring, I had rcvd my new card. The only change I made on the Paypal site was the expiration date. If any one tries to steal from my account, they are better off trying to rob an ice cream truck in Nome. MUCH more profitable.

Guest Anonymous Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 PayPal NEVER asks you for your password, credit card or bank account numbers, or other sensitive information, without you logging into your account first. If you receive an e-mail claiming to be from PayPal that asks you for any of that kind of info, it is a FRAUD. I know of a vendor who responded to one of these e-mails. The theives used the info to log into his account and clean it out. He lost over $10,000. This happened less than two weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
