14. PayPal
Edited on Sun Jun-20-04 04:57 PM by satellitesister
I've been using PayPal since 1999 and never had a problem. I've use it all that time on eBay and now I offer it as a payment option on an online store in addition to cc processing. No problems.

As for eBay- they've been pissing me off lately. The last few times I went there I was assaulted with a popup ad from eBay but they were advertising a big name store that was selling its' products on eBay. WTF? If I wanted a big name store, I'd go to a big name store's website and pay friggen retail. I just thought that was pretty obnoxious. It defeats the purpose of eBay.

Just my two cents.

On edit: I receive many "spoof" emails that claim to be, and look very much like, they are from PayPal. The email requests that I click a link and "update" all my "account information", including credit card, SSN and bank information. The worst part is that this link opens a window which which appears to use the real "http://www.PayPal.com/" web address. It even has the security disclaimer on the side. I report this stupid email every time it comes to me but it's very authentic looking and I'm sure it's really nailing plenty of unsuspecting PayPal users.

No limit to the supply of complete scum in the world.
