Quoted from vid1900:Even if they send the Paypal money as a gift, they can do a chargeback.
Are you saying they would issue a chargeback on their credit card and then that card would come after the paypal account holder, i.e. sue them for the cash (it's easy enough to keep your paypal accountat zero balance and any associated bank accounts)? I guess that makes some sense... but who is going to start that and risk going to court when they are the ones doing the scamming? In all seriousness, has anyone actually been screwed over by the gifting option or is this all hypothetical?
As for hacking, that's a different deal and carries the same risk as any banking with online ability.
Quoted from Reality_Studio:But paypal my account was hacked! I never sent that money, it was the hacker! They get their money back, and you no longer have a pinball machine.
Dang, i should change my password to something other than password.
Quoted from vid1900:Yep.
And if the your Paypal account is empty, they take it right out of your bank account.
...ask me why I don't have Paypal.
What if you have no bank account tied to your paypal account or any attached bank account is at zero? How are they going to get the money then? Sue you? I suppose paypal can come back and screw with your credit...
