Paypal is upgrading the certificate for www.paypal.com to sha-256.

Recently got an email from [URL removed] PayPal is upgrading the certificate for www.paypal.com to SHA-256.

I am not sure what this means. Will Bonanza take care of this for us?

Thank you for posting this link. Helpful!

PayPal SCAMS are Plenty. . .even if I’m 99% SURE it is from PayPal, I go to PayPal itself and look for info’ – - – NEVER click on links in letters/emails that come to you from PayPal – as they might NOT Actually BE from PayPal! PayPal uses your FULL name the one you entered when you joined PayPal, and again, even if you ARE SURE it’s from PayPal . . .PLAY IT SAFE, Dearies and GO to PayPal, and SAFELY Log Into it, for info, their help has always helped me pretty quickly, FYI, and I’m sure they can do so for any PayPal member, too!

To Answer Brilliantly

Remember these tips:

  • Use links to other sources to support your opinions
  • Use examples where possible
  • Put yourself in the inquirers shoes: what extra info would be helpful?

Should I post a comment or an answer?

You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?

Post an answer for:

  • Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question

Post a comment for:

  • "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
  • When you would like the original poster to provide more details
  • When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
