PayPal’s security protocol has been the subject of a lot of criticism from the “Security Now” podcast.One solution is to change your Identification Preference to a pin number instead of your social security number or the last 4 digits of your credit card number. Here’s how to do it.

1. Login to PayPal.

2. From Account Profile – click on Identification preference at the bottom left of the screen.

3. Click on “Create” – Customer Service Pin.

4. Type in your new secrete pin number – now you’re set.
