Got an email from PayPal asking me to upgrade my account information. Have any of you guys and gals gotten this request recently? Just making sure it's legit. Jeff

I got the same thing from eBay. I have had no changes to my personal info, so I just ignored it.

I think they ask for Social Security # etc. because they now send out 1099 forms for taxes etc. Go to Paypal.com directly to make sure you aren't being scammed.

I was told that scams do not use your first and last name but eBay and PayPal do when addressing you. Scams likely reference your username which can be easily traced - first and last name is not easily done. As the safest bet, you can also call the customer line should you need/want additional security?
