As many people are aware, older browsers are more susceptible to security issues that may compromise your PayPal access, and this is being sent out to customers with older browsers to remind them to update. And before it begins (although this won't stop it), I know that we say that we'll never include links in our emails. I even said the exact same thing when I found out about this. But really, what could we have directed you too? "Surf the internet and find out how to update your browser!". That actually sounds worse. I suppose we could've had a colored bar in your account telling you to "click here to find out how to update your browser"...honestly I'm not sure that would be any better. I think it would at least cause the same amount of confusion. And would probably have taken 10 times longer to implement. Please keep in mind that this is being provided with the best of intentions and your security in mind, so I sincerely apologize for the confusion this is (and will) cause. Finally, if you don't want to click on the link to find out how to update your browser...well...."Surf the internet and find out how to update your browser!" 😄 Andy Your link in the email doesn't even go to a secure server.
