Is 67976 a genuine PayPal number used for 2 step verification number process?

Hi there - I get asked to confirm my account on PayPal each time using their 2 step verification process. The texts come through on the 62226 number but also on 67975. Are these both genuine PayPal numbers, if so why two different numbers? I can see nothing out of the ordinary on my account, so far and I have changed my password, just in case. Checking online lots of people are saying at least one of these is a scam but I can't work out how. Both have a six box page, for want of a better description, to enter the received 6 figure code from PayPal and I enter my account normally. It's getting very confusing and I'm in the dark as to what's actually happening. The texts received are just short messages, with the 6 figure code, and look the same on both numbers used. So where's the scam? Argh!
