Hijacked Paypal Account
« on: January 06, 2009, 06:20:14 PM »
Some bastard hijacked my paypal account and hit it for $40 in total over 4 transactions, unforunately, it overdrafter my bank account (which was already overdrawn) four ****ing times!!!!

Bastards!!!!

Ok, I feel a bit better.  Anyways, Paypal automatically disputed them, and I can get my bank to fix the overdrafts (they are really nice to me) but it still really ****es me off.

I had that happen about 8 years ago or so, back when I lived in Texas...that was before eBay bought Paypal and before Paypal had all of the security it has...

so far, I'm glad it happened since then, but I feel your pain...good thing that they noticed an irregularity...

hope everything works out...

Happened to me two months ago, Glenn.  Gotta keep those passwords changed, and gotta get real good virus/spyware protection to keep the keyloggers off your machine.  I now run PC Tools Spyware Doctor with Anti-Virus - works great!

Almost got $3800.00.  luckily the money was missed, immediately, and one the people from whom this asshole bought stuff e-mailed me to coonfirm the purchase.
