I just got the same email yesterday from "Paypal".

Funnily enough, it was about 2 hours after getting one allegedly from ebay saying something similar.

I will post details when I get home, so you know what to look for.

On new cards being sent out, there is a sticker that covers most of the details on the front of the card. If you actually look at the sticker before you take it off, it tells you to ring the call centre to register the card before you try using it so that they can activate it. They change the three numbers on the back for each new card they issue on the account. The thinking being; If the card isn't activated first, it must be compromised.
Makes sense really!
