That was close

Maize MazeWas nearly caught off guard this morning. Going through the hundreds of emails from a two week break I came across one from Pay Pal asking me to update my details.

Clicked on the link and was about to start filling in the details when I noticed that lower down the page they wanted my PIN number. Umm, no-one is getting my PIN number on-line.

Did a little more checking and discovered that it was a bogus site. Phew, hadn’t entered anything.

Fortunately I was just about awake enough to notice. I have always been on the guard for such things but have never seen them before, but today was the exception.
