    @onionglitter I use PayPal and I don't remember it asking for ss#. I know PayPal has a reputation of being super safe and I've never had any issues, but I generally wouldn't trust anything that asks for a ss#.

    does anyone have experience with being banned from PayPal but able to apply for the Venmo Credit Card without getting in trouble?

  • Gunrun Gunrun (@Gunrun) reported

    @Falinratha This guy is doing cheque overpayment fraud. He sends you a cheque for x then asks you to send him 40% of x back via paypal or something, then a week later the cheque bounces and you are left out of pocket and in trouble with your bank. Don't fall for it.

  • rosskennedy Ross Kennedy (@rosskennedy) reported

    @Trader_mcaruso PayPal has Crypto. The issue I think is that most exchanges only list about 10 -20coins.

  • Zacozata Zaco (@Zacozata) reported

    @PayPal there is a website called "paypal-supportDOTcom" that exists only to send text messages claiming a false sign in occurred and asks for your credentials. You can't protect your users if you don't fight for them and remove this website as soon as possible via litigation.

  • bubzylive 𝗕𝘂𝗯𝘇𝘆 (@bubzylive) reported

    @vnshmax @AskPayPal They have stolen $2k from me in the past terrible service.. I just have all my money in my bank and just link my PayPal and whenever I get stuff to my PayPal I transfer it immediately

  • gabrielabispo__ Ts Gabriela (@gabrielabispo__) reported

    My PayPal had a problem and I can't get the money out of there, **** 😖😫

  • SpideyWomack SpideyWomack (@SpideyWomack) reported

    @summit1g For anyone having the "Authentication failed" issue, I had the same thing when entering my card info. I switched it to use Paypal instead and charging to the same card and it went through fine. :)

  • KariDru Kari Dru (@KariDru) reported

    Tumblr yanks down actual in-museums art these days. Paypal will yank your account if they get one single whiff you might have shown somebody your ******* ever. Anti trans bills as far as the eye can see. Cops at pride but not leather daddies. **** all this.

    @YoungGrandpa_ Not even, its cheque overpayment fraud. He sends you a cheque for x then asks you to send him 40% of x back via paypal or something, then a week later the cheque bounces and you are left out of pocket and in trouble with your bank. Don't fall for it.

  • sutomlinn s (@sutomlinn) reported

    @AskPayPal hi there. I’m having trouble accessing my account. It’s asking for the 2 step authentication however it’s my old phone number which I no longer use. Is there a way around it?

  • atomsandler Mar No Bajutsu (@atomsandler) reported

    Please avoid paying through PayPal for now! There are issues with the account I'm using. I'm trying to get it resolved, so please another method for now. I may remove PayPal as a payment method if this keeps up.
