I received an email from paypal claiming that they need to update my account information, but I've no clue if the email itself is legitimate. There does seem to be a policy update but the email asks for credit card number, account password... Anyone know anything about this? |

I think that paypal would only let you fill in that sort of information on their site anyway. |

"account password"unless it's for logging in, they would never let you fill that information in anywhere, ever. it's 2012.

paypal intercepted 3 of my accounts. Similar information caused some security concerns from their end. They want a scanned copy of my passport and crap, just going to avoid using paypal now. |

Phishing e-mail  The link in the e-mail will lead you to a Fake -PayPal Homepage to grab your account informations. And why should Pay-Pall ask you for an update of your account information by e-mail? They could just wait until you login next time to your paypal account and then ask you to check and update your informations or to accept new terms and conditions. |

Just log into paypal. If it's legit, the message will be there too. |
