As an eBay Power Seller, I live and Die with PayPal. In fact, I also receive a ton of phishing emails on a hourly basis. It’s always best to be careful and check your PayPal account on a constant basis.

As you, know Phishing emails are pretty easy to spot and delete. I always log on to my PayPal, and eBay accounts before clicking on any related link within an email, especially when it looks legit. This is to ensure that I don’t need to enter my username and password after the click. It always pays to be paranoid when you make a living off the internet.

paypal sucks. but until theres another processor online that does it better then them, its who everyone will use.

sucks your account got frozen though. Paypal is also known for giving money back to a client, even WITH proof that they do not deserve it, and you have given them the work.

I appreciate the security, yes, but this is just too much work just to be able to accept payments via Paypal.

You hear about Paypal locking accounts like they’re out of control. They’re really worried about scams and it’s good they go a little overboard but I think their service to correct locked accounts could be better.

Oh it’s such a hassle, and the worst part is my credit rating concern..

Of course, Paypal doesn’t have much pertinent data about my personal information but you never know.

Hey Jeff, thanks for the ping back

I’ve never had my PayPal account locked but it must be bad if you need it for business!
