There is no reason why anyone would need your pin number...they can charge the card via the regular card number. I think it's a con.

Sounds like a con to me. Having a debit card number and the pin gives them too much power. Legitimate businesses would at least accept a mailed money order.

My friends, I apologize for the extreme OT nature of this, but it is Friday and it is a computer of sorts..... Got an email from giftstakes.com saying I won an XBox. I would like to win an xbox and it looks authentic enough. However they want me to pay shipping (like 4 bucks) which is reasonable- but they only accept debit cards and they want my debit card number and my PIN...this makes me leary, timothy. Has anybody else seen this email is this a con...am I a sucker in the making?? They also have a 72 hour limit before the prize goes back to the pool....whadayathink?? _D -----like my sig says...
