Julie, Although we can see a genuine demand for those services from people, who would like to sell on the Internet (and ebay) , but do not live in the list of paypal-supported countries. If only there was a way to wade through those orders... That brings you to another Paypal problem. If

Gordon, We were actually exchanging e-gold at the time, not using PayPal as a credit card processor for hosting or domain registrations. Of course that made things much worse because it meant each charge back was serious monies lost rather than only revenue lost, hence my rage. Jim, I did

okay, we take some measures against scammers and stolen accounts. 1. accounts must be verified. 2. users have to reply to an email (including our email body) sent to their paypal adress. For those who know well pp practices, are these measures enough, in your mind ?? Thanks @netcourrier.com

#2. this will not be enough here. Usually when a paypal account is stolen, the person's email account is also stolen so verifying this way does no good, but still should be done of course. #1. What do you mean when you say verify accounts? I think it was about 6 months ago when paypal stated

You will need to insist on an ISP mail address and even then you have no protection against thievery from PayPal itself. Millions of people never have a problem with PayPal, tens of thousand get ripped off by PayPal themselves. There seems to be no pattern though about who they steal from and whom

Does PayPal actually have something in their Terms Conditions written against business that exchanges PayPal? A colleague of mine read the TC around 6 months ago, when we though of providing this service to our clients and haven't found any cautions against this kind of service. Did anyone

Yes, but the problem is that PayPal allows fraudulent money into their system by giving their buying customers access to credit cards. There are dozens, if not hundreds, of thieves which have access to stolen credit cards. This is what strikes me as extremely unusual. Should not they

I actually agree with all three. First you will get a few deposits, then you will get your account restricted - notably whenever you are trying to make the first withdrawal. After disclosing everything there is to know about your life so far, they will claim not to have received anything and will

We were doing that for a while as you know. Paypal never closed our account on us thankfully, but we did and still do get reversals all the damn time. This stems mostly from the users of Paypal who steal other peoples accounts. Gordon --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: [EMAIL
