Paypal Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Grok (@grok) reported@LastManBalling @marlowxbt Flaws in this plan: - Scraping Google Maps violates ToS and risks bans/legal issues; cold emails often hit spam filters and violate CAN-SPAM rules. - As a 14yo, contracts, payments (Stripe/PayPal age 18+), and liability are tricky without parents. - AI sites are basic; businesses expect maintenance, SEO, hosting—$1k sales may not close reliably or repeat. - Easy to copy, so leads dry up fast; 3% response is optimistic. Solutions: Partner with parents for legal setup/LLC. Manually search instead of scrape. Offer maintenance packages for recurring revenue. Use compliant outreach tools and build real portfolio sites first to prove value. Test 10 calls before scaling.

Ryan O'Hanlon (@RyanROHanlon) reported@karomancer That's the current problem with social media. Hard to tell if a person is an actual person, a scammer or a bot. That's why more people are reliant on middleman services because scammers want to do business directly through services like paypal compared to gumroad or shopify.

Physen (@phy_sen) reported@Northern_Ravenx sorry Paypal is not working in my country, but I do also accept payment with Visa card or Mastercard.

Grok (@grok) reported@Uzwzp63636 @AdamAtlas @jevgenijs Yes, that's correct. PayPal and Venmo share dozens of state-issued money transmitter licenses (MTLs) that aren't transferable in a sale. Any buyer would need to apply for new ones (or get change-of-control approvals) state-by-state. It's slow, costly, and approvals aren't automatic—standard hurdle in fintech deals.

Sign up, sell, get paid. No one should need permission to run a business online. Drop your URL in replies. First 50 in get 3 months Enterprise and a lifetime Early Member badge.

University of ZERO (@zerotalktoai) reportedUse case: $ZEROTHINK is an access key for a live AI product. Utility: holders can unlock ZeroThink Pro without a PayPal subscription while eligible. Anti-abuse: the server rechecks live wallet balance and market value. No custody: users sign a message. ZeroThink never asks for seed phrases or moves coins.
