  @KrzyDays @vexmlk @PayPal Not saying you feel any type of way. But simply making a point to it since the real issue is not the legitimacy of art or slnsfw content is is privately owned business like PayPal can make rules that best suit the shareholder than you.

  2) off the top, taking your $5 down to $4.75. They then take $1 as a @PayPal processing fee, something I have NEVER seen in any of these kinds of apps, this takes your payment to $3.75 which they then exchange from USD to the currency you use, mine was GBP. That left me with...

  @Polymarket and if the AI bill is finally a real problem, that money has to land somewhere. there's a shelf of profitable leaders down 80%+ that nobody will touch. paypal alone throws off 15% of its market cap in cash a year. same week broadcom lost $280B for a record quarter.

  @SokoAnalyst The problem is, the people sending money to Africa are in the countries where PayPal is a big player.

  Pasco Sheriff’s Office is aware of several jury duty scams that occur across Pasco County. Oftentimes, the scammer claims to be an official, sometimes using PSO and/or a PSO member’s name, to inform the potential victim that they’ve missed jury duty and must pay a fee. These payments are made via PayPal, Bitcoin, Zelle, and similar services. Scammers may use a blocked number or spoof a PSO number, such as our general information line. PSO does not manage jury duty notifications, and we stress that these messages are not legitimate. PSO will never contact individuals for any form of payment to resolve issues, criminal or otherwise.

  What’s the point of @PayPal being a payment processor if they don’t intervene with issues between buyer & seller????

  @DavidShares @tyleraloevera **** the crypto nonsense. You’re not likely to run into issues using PayPal, Venmo, or credit cards. Patreon shut him down because they align with groups who dislike Tyler. But if you make your own site that’s enough 99.9% of the time

  @frank_esguerra There’s a chance maybe when someone sent money to you they put the note saying “nsfw”. Cause the annoying thing with PayPal is them cracking down on adult themed stuff now, so you gotta play with words now

  @ELYRIX_RECOVERY @LinkedInHelp Thanks! I was able to recover my acct after sending LinkedIn, the front & back of my DL. However, the hacker created a job posting & put my PayPal acct in. LinkedIn took the post down but not before it racked up a $91 bill which LinkedIn charged me for. I can’t recover my money!

  Ramp just raised $750M at a $44B valuation, which is roughly 44x their current revenue. I'm impressed by the level of conviction Ramp has been able to instill in the investors that have poured roughly $3B into the company since 2019, including, most recently, the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan. Personally, I'm not sure I get it. I admire Ramp. It's a super smart company that has a genuinely strong handle on AI and is growing and shipping product extremely fast, but $44B? That's more than PayPal, which currently has a market cap of $38B on $32B in revenue. "Fine," you might say. "PayPal is an absolute mess. Ramp should be worth more than it." OK, what about Fifth Third? It has almost $300B in assets and generated $9B in revenue last year (good for $2.5B in profit). Its market cap is currently the same as Ramp's valuation. "Yes," you acknowledge. "Fifth Third is a better-run company than PayPal, but it's a bank. It's slow. Looking forward, its growth trajectory is very modest. Ramp's growth potential makes it a much better bet." So, what about Affirm? Affirm is just as smart as Ramp. It has just as strong a handle on AI as Ramp. It's profitable and on track to generate more than $4B in revenue this year, which would be a 33% increase year-over-year. Affirm's market cap is currently $22B, half of what Ramp was just valued at. That just doesn't seem correct. Something is being mispriced and my hunch is that it's Ramp. But we won't know that until it goes public, if it ever does.

  @Spotify and @SpotifyCares - I signed up for the 3 months free subscription trial. You charged my PayPal account $2 for some reason and I still don’t have any premium benefits; I’m on the free account still. You need to fix this or refund my money. More info in messages. #spotify

  How do strangers, agents, communities, or businesses create spendable obligations between each other without needing a bank, card network, PayPal, Stripe, or centralized balance sheet to decide who is allowed to issue value and who must accept it?

  🚨 NEW: US-Iranian Tech CEO Arrested For Supplying Iran's Nuclear Program Jamshid Ghomi, the CEO of a Tehran-based technology firm, was arrested Wednesday for allegedly funneling sensitive American networking and security equipment directly to Iran’s military and nuclear facilities. Prosecutors claim he operated a massive money laundering network to bypass strict US sanctions and finance a lavish California lifestyle. His company, Faraz Pardaz Rayaneh, allegedly supplied critical equipment to Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization and the Ministry of Defense over an eight-year period. Ghomi laundered more than $15 million into American bank accounts and construction escrows, falsely reporting the illicit funds as a foreign inheritance. The 63-year-old executive utilized personal eBay and PayPal accounts to make over 400 purchases of computer networking equipment, routing the shipments through intermediaries in the United Arab Emirates. Federal prosecutors are now actively attempting to seize Ghomi’s massive $35 million mansion in Newport Beach, California, which was largely funded by foreign wire transfers. This high-profile arrest exposes severe vulnerabilities in global supply chains, revealing how hostile foreign programs can acquire restricted technology through basic e-commerce workarounds. It also marks a significant escalation in the ongoing enforcement of sweeping sanctions against Iran's manufacturing and defense sectors. Are current international export controls completely broken, or will massive asset seizures like this finally deter intermediary smuggling networks? Source: Justice Department

  @yabaguu @CuppyCakiee So they removed stripe awhile back. People got upset about it. Then they added stripe back recently. I think it had something to do with tos and conflicts. Throne allowing NSFW items and funding probably didn't go well during the payment processor freak out if I had to guess. also a note on paypal. It can effect taxes at the end of the year to have any payouts go there. Like twitch, tips from other platforms and throne. Although i didn't know we could have it go to paypal for throne. Its not hard to fix if your tax person knows but you risk being taxed twice for that income. Purely speaking as a united state's living individual.

  You may have heard the story last month that Pope Leo’s bank hung up on him, mistaking him for a prank caller. Today there was no such problem. At the Vatican, Treasurer Frerichs personally presented Pope Leo with an $8.65 I-Cash claim, the proceeds of an abandoned PayPal account he left behind in Illinois. "I am happy to send $8.65 to the world's most famous White Sox fan" Frerichs said.

  The White Whale (@WhiteWhaleLabs) reported 59 minutes ago

  @HattoriPonzo @tushar_jain I think most people don't care about privacy because it's not a luxury they enjoy in every day life. So you're trying to offer people a solution to a problem they have come to live with. The vast majority of fiat currency is digital. As is the vast majority of fiat currency transactions. People have come not to care that their bank or credit card issuer can see their OnlyFans subscription. In crypto the only person you're trusting to "know" your wallet address (unless you publicize it) is your crypto bank (CEX on-ramp). So if we don't mind that our fiat banks see all of the embarrassing things we buy, why would we care that our on-ramp links us to a certain "credit card number" ? Even if I go to the drugstore to buy an embarrassing ointment and pay in cash...my cell phone tracked me there and the stores CCTV captures my face. And if it's just to send money between friends without disclosing your "bank account balance" - we already have PayPal and Venmo that do that already.
