Alvin (@Alvin1492840) reportedHis Amazon account. His streaming subscriptions. His food delivery apps. Every online purchase for 8 years all tied to his debit card. His friend said: "Online retailers get breached constantly. When a website is hacked, stored payment methods are exposed. If that's a credit card, you dispute the charge and move on. If that's a debit card, your checking account is compromised." He showed him news from 2025 alone multiple major data breaches exposing millions of stored payment credentials. His friend said: "For online shopping, use a credit card. Or better use PayPal, Apple Pay, or a virtual card number so your real card number is never stored on the merchant's server." He removed his debit card from every online account that evening Amazon, Uber, DoorDash, subscriptions and replaced them with a credit card. Same purchases. Same convenience. Dramatically more protection.

Felix 🫀 Fanfaron - Adam Raki Plush Coming Soon! (@FelixFanfaron) reported@beanyzilla @ACGGoods Weirdly mine also showed me being charged (or 'payment pending') the full amount at the time of the preorder, but now since the apparent PayPal refund it only shows the down payment in my bank account, so it may be worth double checking for any and all transactions with ACGGoods

ZoneCrypto (@_ZoneCrypto_) reported✦ PayPal enhances its focus on stablecoins while reporting Q2 results: In its second-quarter report, PayPal showcased the rising significance of stablecoins and AI-powered payment solutions, revealing a revenue of $8.68 billion and an $81 million adjustment linked to crypto assets. The company posted earnings of $1.26 per share, slightly down from $1.30 year-over-year, and below the $1.28 expected by analysts. Revenue increased from $8.29 billion last year, surpassing the $8.47 billion consensus. PayPal's $81 million adjustment excluded from non-GAAP results reflects its strategy regarding crypto and investments.

Shem Horne (@Shem_Infinite) reportedLike these AI can do whatever you can do with a computer, so if you can go buy server space it can too if it has a way to pay for it, many ways to pay can be accessed online (Crypto, etc). If the AI is already attacking outside websites why wouldn’t it steal a paypal acccount?
