Sara Haines needs to come up with a new PIN number — and fast!
The flabbergasted The View cohost, 48, dropped an F-bomb on live TV after mentalist Oz Pearlman correctly guessed the four-digit ATM code during a Tuesday, November 18 appearance on the daytime talk show to promote his new book, Read Your Mind.
“What the f**k,” she exclaimed, though it was bleeped out for audiences at home.
At first, Pearlman, 43, had asked Haines to make up a fake number, in an effort to convince even the most skeptical of skeptics of his skills.
“People always say, ‘He stalked all of you! He sent private investigators! He knows everything about your best friend!’” the mind reader explained. “But what if I asked you right now to think of your ATM PIN code?”
“If I guessed it, people will say, ‘He must have found that out [before],” he continued. “So if I ask instead to make up a random PIN code, how could I know that because you wouldn’t even know what you would do?”

Pearlman guessed Haines’ fake number correctly — it was 1225! — but what he did next blew everybody’s minds.
“Are you ready for this, Sara? Your real code? 3816, isn’t it?” he asked.
“No one knows my PIN,” she insisted. “Why would you say it on national television!”
Haines couldn’t believe it. Neither could her fellow cohosts.
“Do not announce my baby’s name!” a pregnant Alyssa Farah Griffin joked.
Pearlman’s new book, Read Your Mind, comes out Friday, November 20.
