Not doubting what fastspider said about getting your money out of them but I personally haven't had any problems. THIS statement though, "Never ever give your paypal information out to an email requesting it because paypal does not send out emails asking for your information and never will and scammers do." Is a DEFINATE!! Lucky enough for me that my bank was wondering why I was making purchases in Romania! They cancelled all transactions and issued me a new number in which I had to straighten up my paypal account with the new information so BEWARE!!

Have a good one!:jointsmile:
5) Don't keep your money in paypal. It's not uncommon for them to freeze your account. PayPalSucks.com is where you will learn about the PayPal Class Action Lawsuit, Abuse, Fraud & evil behind the PayPal system!, but if you're smart and using it for legal reasons and small personal transactions you should be fine. :hippy:
