Hi, I just received this email notice saying to click on the link to check and update my browser for secure use of Paypal. I did not trust it and did not click on it. Instead I logged into my paypal account myself and checked for any messages or notifications and could find none. So I suspected it as a phishing attempt. I read on here that it is legit. You said that you could figure out no better way to present this browser update check without including url links of sorts? I recommend that you don't ever include url links in your notifications like these, but rather just tell your users to manually log in to their paypal account to check for the new message info. You should present your updates info to users when they log into their accounts. That way we (the users) will be confident that it is not a fake phishing scam. BTW, I too am using the latest IE9 browser all up to date and I still received this paypal notice saying that my browser is out of date and that I need to click on that link to find out how to update it. Hogwash. I am already updated. So this is a confusing paypal email notification if it is indeed real and legit. Please change the way you niotify us by not including any links in your emails to us and make that standard proceduere policy! That way if and when we get future emails soliciting us that do include a url link to click on, we will know for sure it is a phishing scamster! Get it? Hope so.
