  @AskPayPal I’m getting the following message: “We’re having trouble making sure it’s you.” I tried contacting support by sending them a message. They replied, but to read their response, I need to log in to my account. Infinite loop. 👇🏻

  @milkshouto wise is honestly the best one!! the fees are so little and its soo easy to use also the biggest problem with paypal is that they are very likely and quickly to lock ur money and suspend your account if they suspect youre using it to earn money.. even w a business acc i believe

  Yeah this IcyPryncess thing is weird. I just watched Jay3 video and listened to the memos. Why did you move the PayPal money to your bank account? That's where the whole issue begins. Forget the cash app non sense, the issue starts from PayPal

  I went straight from the curb to the Apple Store in Honolulu, because surely, I thought, Apple could help me. My phone was erased, and the attacker had switched on Activation Lock, the anti-theft feature that binds a device to its owner's Apple ID. The irony was total: the security designed to protect me from a thief was now the thief's tool for locking me out of my own phone. I could not unlock the device in my own hand. Neither could Apple. At the Genius Bar, with my original purchase receipt and a stack of government IDs on the counter, the technicians told me there was nothing they could do. Their best advice was to buy a new phone. Standing right there at the Genius Bar, I made my first call for help, to a friend who works in private security. That was the person who told me, in plain and practical terms, how to start locking everything down, and much of what my wife and I did over the next several days came from that first call. I left the store and went to my cousin's house. Neither of us had the first idea where to begin unwinding this, and we sat there together, two grown men, feeling helpless. It was no longer only about money, though the money went that night too. The person who held my account also held more than 100,000 family photographs, my notes, my data, every password saved in my Apple keychain, my entire iMessage history, and, worst of all, the ability to receive the text-message verification codes sent to my own number, the codes that guard everything else. In one app, the thief sold the investments I held there to raise cash, then reached my wife directly, sending her a payment request that looked to her like it came from me. She was careful and declined the first requests. A later one, appearing to be from me, drew thousands of dollars out of her before she understood that her own husband was not the one asking. Then they drained the rest. Overnight, from Los Angeles, my accounts bled out through a string of Walgreens drugstores, an Arco gas station, and a single charge of thousands of dollars at a Staples, the signature of a gift-card cash-out. Orders were delivered by a food-delivery app to a Los Angeles address I had never heard of. My PayPal was accessed. Two credit applications were filed in my name. When I tried to freeze one account in the middle of the night, I found its support line ran only on East Coast business hours. It was closed. The thief had the whole night, and used it. When the tally settled, several thousand dollars was gone, and only a small fraction has come back. I expected the theft to end when the money did. It did not. Three days later, on June 28, the intruder reached back into the account and erased my smartwatch, off my wrist, in real time. They were still there. And Apple, it turned out, could not simply give the account back. To prove that I was me, Apple's own recovery process required the very thing the thief controlled since they held the trusted number. Then the calls started, a wave of them from that same number ending in 67, a caller posing as an Apple supervisor and riding the spoofed line. After they take everything, they call you, and they sound exactly like the people you are most desperate to trust. And the fraud has not stopped. In the weeks since, the thief has kept opening cryptocurrency accounts in my name, one after another, using the identity he took to move money through channels that are hard to trace and harder to undo. The police, when I met them at my cousin's house, could do almost nothing but take a report. For guidance on the crime itself, I reached out to an old college classmate who is now an FBI agent. He confirmed that the number had been spoofed, walked me through what to document and whom to contact, and steadied me when I needed it.

  Airbnb rep keeps telling me someone is going to resolve the issue but then they keeps closing the message thread as resolved and paypal tried to charge me again. Please figure out what the hell is going on on your end!! THIS IS SERIOUS BREACH OF SECURITY. WHAT IF GOING ON?

  @AskPayPal Thank you for your answers, I finally logged into my account thanks to a support (We think that the problem comes from Brave's Shield system, and that's why it was locked down under some security protocol).

  In my opinion: One of the major reasons Tech Nation applicants get rejected is self‑authored evidence. Over the past few months, one rejection reason keeps appearing again and again, evidence dismissed as self‑authored. When applicants book consultation calls with me, many don’t fully understand what this means. Others feel their evidence was unfairly judged. But the truth is this, in most cases, Tech Nation’s feedback on this is true. I’m not saying applicants are lying or fabricating documents. Most are not. The real issue is how the evidence is presented and the type of evidence being submitted. What “self‑authored” really means People think self authored only means you made it up. But it’s deeper than that. If your evidence can be easily created by you or anyone else, Tech Nation may treat it as self authored, even if it’s true. For example: Dashboard screenshots made from something like a Canva templates Charts created in Excel self designed visuals showing revenue, users, or growth you manually entered. These things can be created by anyone in minutes. There is no external validation. No third party source. No independent confirmation. Even if your numbers are real, Tech Nation, I believe will begin to doubt. And let’s be honest, mistakes happen when people manually enter numbers into Excel or Canva. That alone, is enough to creates doubt. What I Believe Tech Nation trusts more From my experience with successful applicants. Evidence from credible, external, independent sources carries far more weight. Let’s continue with the instance above, instead of using canva template or excel to show earnings, use 1. Payment gateway earnings (Stripe, PayPal, Flutterwave, etc.) 2. Audited financial statements 3. Signed statements of account from a Bank These sources are harder to fake, harder to manipulate, and easier for Tech Nation to trust. Because it involve people, organisations, platforms they can trust, contact if they need to. The simple rule to avoid rejection as a result of self authorship This is one of the simple rule that has helped most of the successful applicants I have guided. If you also want to reduce the risk of your evidence being dismissed, make sure every piece of evidence comes from, or is backed by, a credible platform, organisation, or individual. If it looks like something you could have created yourself, Tech Nation may treat it as self authored, even if it’s genuine. Your evidence should remove doubt, not create it. Your job is to make Tech Nation’s job easy. Raphael here! I provide experience‑based guidance for Tech Nation Endorsement (Stage 1) applications, leveraging proven strategies that have helped numerous successful candidates. I am not an immigration lawyer, and my guidance is based solely on practical experience, successful evidence structuring, and real‑world application insights. Leave your questions in the comments, I’m happy to answer. All the best.

  @7euphoriabts It’s your payment method. I used PayPal for my date for three different orders and it went through. Others had problems using things like Apple Pay. So hopefully you can try again unless it’s all sold out! I’d try PayPal next time!

  !!! Advisory !!! I have received multiple Discord friend requests Impersonating artists I work with and a creator I don't know in the last 48 hours. NovaYstudio Altaluna Ops_saki natalie_gabrielle I've also heard a huge spike in this happening to others over the last 2-3 days. Please be careful on discord. Discord is being used to deliver remote access trojans. asking you to do collabs and install a file, re=downloads of art, or asking you to download corruped mods on legitimate mod sites like curseforge and modrynth. or they ask you to enter a contest like a Mr. Beast contest for money. when they get access, They clone your browser session and use it to bypass login and 2fa and access all of your accounts. To places like youtube discord twitch paypal email etc. they think its you already logged in, no password no token code, they are just in! they then change all of your info and lock you out. Then they use your accounts to try and infect your friends with the remote access trojan as well. you could receive a message from a long time friend asking you to download a Minecraft mod to play with them, and you don't know they have been hacked because they scanned your previous conversations with them to pick what they are going to trick you with. Please be careful and its say to say but, if a friend suddenly and randomly asks you to download something make sure its really them in control of the discord account first. If they attempt to impersonate me at some point - I never send blind Discord friend invites. Please be safe

  Years later, Peter Thiel watched the intelligence failures of 9/11. The CIA, FBI, and NSA had all the data to stop the attacks, but it was scattered across disconnected databases. Thiel realized the government had the exact same problem PayPal had.
