Does this look legit to you and feel that you have not been hacked?

<link removed> If it does not open paypal is asking for my bank account details including numbers and transit details.

If it is legit? bye bye Paypal

Welcome to the boards!

 

No, PayPal has not been hacked.

 

The link you are showing appears to be an outdated manual command, which would explain why the page isn't laid out correctly.  I would recommend instead going directly into your profile if you were looking to add a bank account.  I think you'll find the page layout there will make much more sense.  In the meantime, I've deleted the link you provided so that it doesn't cause any more confusion.  Please don't repost it.

 

Thanks!
