Today I woke up and checked my (regular) mail for bills and such. However, to my eternal surprise, I came across an envelope half the size of a regular one titled Google.

As you can see from the photo it was interestingly held together by three small scotch patches and to my eternal surprise it was mailed from Jamaica, NY. Below is the back of the envelope:

Now as you can see from the envelope I live in Romania which is quite far from Google’s headquarters so I was surprised to receive it and the “Important Account Information” on the back was a bit odd. After opening the envelope I was surprised to see it was about AdSense:

So it seems Google has created a PIN for my AdSense account. Strange thing was that when I tried logging in to AdSense I got a no account message which is… well weird… On further examination I realised my adsense password was actually different from my google account password (which is the same email address) and it worked after that. It seems they have made a pin to make payments  in order to better secure the process.

Anyone else get one?
