I have been told that don't accept payments via paypal, is that right?
Because when buyer will have his bitcoins then he can claim back money from paypal by saying that i haven't received desired product.

Your title is entirly differnt from your post content.If you ask which one is better bitcoinor paypal,the obvious answer here would be bitcoin.
To answer the question in your op,I would say yes it is risky to buy bitcoin with paypal.In fact it is always risky to buy bitcoin from any indevidual without escrow

I have had a paypal account for the last 7 years but my experience with it over the years will definitely make me prefer bitcoin than paypal. First, paypal has some fees for transactions but this is not the main problem because even bitcoin has transaction fees associated with it. The main problem for me in regard to paypal are the restrictions and lack of flexibility in withdrawing funds globally. It is evident that you cannot withdrawal your paypal funds to banks in some countries and if it does, it will take very long to hit your account. Secondly, paypal transactions are reversible just in case the sender raises a complain. I lost $700 in paypal when i exchanged paypal with bitcoin because I will dealing with a scammer who waited until he had received bitcoins then raised a complain with paypal. the whole amount was reversed and I lost both the bitcoin and the $700.

i do like bitcoin and honestly i have never used PayPal ever but some days ago when i visited tor network sites i see many sites selling hacked PayPal accounts so i will not consider it as a safe option

Sure, your Paypal account could get hacked if you don't protect it with a strong password and good security practices. Encryption does the rest. One could also fairly easily have his bitcoin private keys stolen if he left them unencrypted.

Well, I think the use of a paypal account is very troublesome. I also never used it, and it really makes me confused. the account is locked, and a lot of things you must do. for I know bitcoin, I guess there is no obstacle from using it, only a few times I was deceived, but all was fine, so I think bitcoin is still better than paypal

So bitcoin is more better to use for the transactions of or money rather than paypal, In the past I always wanted to have a system of payment transaction which will have the lowest fees for its transactions and now I got it in the form of bitcoin, I love it.

That's a user fault and not the Paypal itself. One example why Paypal got hacked is by logging in on a phishing site thru advertisements. That is common for PTC users where ads are hidden in a source that's why people don't recognized it if it is legit site or phishing.

Bitcoin and Paypal must be taken seriously by it's user responsibly in order to prevent problems in the future.

In one form bitcoin seems better than PayPal and in some other things PayPal will be better than bitcoin. When you consider the transaction fee most users prefer of using bitcoin. At the same for shopping most users prefer PayPal because of acceptance over most of the stores as well increased security on refund. Its better to use upon one's requirements.

I recommend that if you sell bitcoins, don't accept payment via paypal. Apparently the buyer can claim that they did not receive any bitcoins and then paypal will refund their money at your expense. You will have lost your money and bitcoins. Paypal could easily check that the bitcoins were sent, but I have heard that they don't do that. I don't know if there is any risk for the buyer in this situation.

We all know that BTC is reliable and have a faster transaction it is proven in all similar campaign and advertisement, however paypal is more accepted as a wallet in terms of someones money. I think it is only a matter of time before BTC dominate the system of currency.

There are countries that actually have anti Bitcoin laws where the usage of Bitcoin can make you end up in prison or get a hefty fine.

Put please the list of such countries.

I think is have any questions for you. maybe can you tell me about the different in the faster between bitcoin and PayPal? Huh

PayPal and bitcoin have a different system for their security too. we can't make a compare for both of them.

Bitcoin is much better than paypal as bitcoin is accepted worldwide and it is a currency for world wide and a payment system for all over the world , while paypal is a payment system limited to some countries. so businesses with bitcoin are accessible to all over the world while those businesses with paypal are only accessible to those countries where paypal is allowed

You are right paypal really restrict the services and businesses to the limited areas of the world and worldwide businesses cannot rely on paypal they need a system of worldwide and so the adopt bitcoin for themselves. One of the bad feature of paypal is that it often freezes accounts so destroy people's hard work.

It's a damn shame of course, but the governments of these countries know very well that Bitcoin is far superior compared to their old fashion and corrupt financial system.

I prefer to bitcoin, so I think bitcoin is better right now
bitcoin is the future online payment.

Bitcoin is much better look at paypal, its maybe easy because its accepted at a lot of websites but its not fast and secure.
The bitcoin is way more secure and also much faster, globally you can even transfer and you will also not get limited at all, no question that are being asked for stupid transactions by paypal.

we have to deal with our money and we need a system for the transaction of our money so when bitcoin can do that for us more easier then we will say that bitcoin is more better for us than paypal for transacting our money, and so with that the comparison starts.

Can you elaborate why Paypal transactions are not secured? They are using web security measures to ensure their clients You mean someone can hacked it while your money is being send? And I see no problems in terms of being fast in transactions.

Like you said it has been using by lots of popular merchants out there so why they will used Paypal if it's not secured and transactions are slow???
