Right on, morbius! The OP even said "What's that?", so why are they even posting. If she actually has a bank account, the bank could tell her what a "PIN" is.

I love the double-reducancy of mentioning two parts of the acronym (Personal PIN Number). It should be "Personal PIN Number for Identification."
-
I like how a lot of the card readers at stores display the prompt "Secret Code" instead of "PIN". How am I supposed to enter "Ken sent me" with only numeric buttons?

The real WTF is that I can't vote that up until I reach "level 2", and that was after all the work I went through registering an account, just so I could rate it!

By looking at the letters on them, as with a telephone keypad. Some people remember their PINs that way.

That's typically how I come up with PINs. Take something I'd normally use as a password and keypadify it.

That phraseology alone screams 'phishing'. It's also amazing how many replies totally ignore that angle, as if they'd fall for it as well. Time to fire up the old Nigerian email account, I need a retirement fund...

Here I was, expecting some horror story about some contrived Remote Access Service set-up ...

It's called double DRASS syndrome.
