How would you know if it is a genuine email?

Hi Flor,
I rarely make payments online, but when I do I use Paypal if it’s an option
and I appreciate the convenience. But I must add one thing: yesterday I
received a mail from them asking me to check and confirm the phone number I
gave them when I joined: it looks as if they will shortly be introducing a
text challenge system for each transaction and therefore need the client’s
phone number to send the one-time code number to us. All in the name of SCA
(strong customer identification).
Best,
Sean.

Subject: [vicsireland] Is PayPal acceptable for doing Bank transfers online?
Hi,
Since PayPal does the necessary emailing advising the other party of
remittance or whatever after you’ve paid into the other party’s account, I’m
wondering if it’s ok to use it (or a similar service if available) instead of
going through the rigmarole of paying from my own Bank into that of the other
party - including inputting the 7-digit code, which may not be required by
PayPal? Does anyone know?
