I've just had an email, seemingly from paypal, saying they have noticed that there is no address or ID attached to my account and I should log in and send them ID from either my passport, a financial statement or any official government documentation.
They also ask for proof of address via a recent utility bill, financial statement or Certificate of Residence.
They conclude by asking me for my paypal account number to be sent to

I use paypal for on-line purchases fairly frequently and have never had a request like this before. Is it a random and legitimate security check or is it a scam ?
