I got the PayPal email that asked for my card PIN number too. Why would anyone answer an email that asked for details that you would never be asked to reveal to the real PayPal? I know many people get stung with these things but with a little common sense you should be able to make the distinction between the real and the dangerous, especially when PayPal and the likes are forever sending out warnings about these things. Whenever I get one of these mails I now just forward the whole thing to PayPals spoof centre and let them deal with it. Catlin
