User blog comment:TheAmazingBBP/On the fifth day of outage my Sony gave to me, the worst excuse that I have ever seen/@comment-1840523-20110428202034

OK. Just got a batch email from Sony. They say that any email claiming to be from Sony asking for tax number, credit card details, etc. (I can't be bothered to list them all out) isn't. So, fellow PS3 users, be on your guard for any email/telephone/postage inquiries asking for account information, and remember to check any credit/debit card accounts that you have used for the PS3. If needed, ask your bank for a new card with different details (new number, new security code, etc.). With luck, this can all be over soon.
