I can't believe people are so stupid to think a legit business uses ONLY Paypal for payment! The scammer received about $12,000 in purchase orders over 3 days and quickly transferred the money to HIS own bank account. I finally get a call from Paypal for suspicious activity. And tons of emails from pissed off people wondering where their items they bought are. The absurd thing is Paypal allowed a person to change my password without positive ID of my last 4 SS numbers or a phone call verification to the phone number on file. I have since added the text to my phone verification code for each time I log in. I HIGHLY recommend this!! or drop your useless paypal account


Had similar happen to me with PayPal. I dumped the account and will never open another.


Never, ever argue with an IDIOT. They will drag you to their level and then beat you with their years of experience
