Just got a text that says my account will be disabled today if i fail to update and then it gives me a website to go to.  Do we get text messages from Paypal?

Phishing ... don't try to login using the link in the text.  SMS SPAM may contain suspicious content.   Many carriers will let you report SPAM by simply forwarding the message to ‘7726’ (which is the keys for ‘SPAM’ on most phones).
