Hmmm. My entire post was edited down to the website. What's that about??

Paypal is notorious for not being at all responsive to customer complaints. They are downright UNHELPFUL. They get hacked all the time and claim it's never happened when you ask them about it. I would call that "lying".

I called to have them cancel my account, but the account doesn't really disappear until they do a regular system cleanse, once every two weeks or so. Even this bugs the crap out of me. Why can't they just instantly delete an account? Weird.

Don't forget that they're now the same company as eBay. And since that time, eBay's security responsiveness has sunk to the low level of PayPal's...

I suggest you cancel your PayPal account immediately and only pay by credit card. Credit Card companies are the most willing to protect your funds since they aren't based on cash, like those at a bank.

Sorry, thought you were you directing your "What do you suggest" question to me. My mistake.
