Paypal isn't a scam. I speak from own experience and i have never had any issues with making transactions to someone else.
The only issues I have had with Paypal are the high fees for a transaction.

I do agree with this I did many transactions with PayPal from buying from online shops. And there's no problem that I did experienced from it everything went smoothly. People are just the ones who are making some bad ideas and using this payment processor as a medium of their shady activities with their victims.
paypal is not doing scam you will find it easy to trade and shop when using paypal but the problem is the security system paypal very vulnrable for on dikes there are millions of successful account in dikes

Yeah they aren't the ones that has been doing scams with their transactions. They are just a simple payment method where we can simply put and store our dollars that has been sent to us, it's like our dollar wallet. And if we wanted to cash it out using bank transfer they are always been a good service with it. That's why PayPal will never be a scam.

I have had an issue with Paypal and while I was trying to look for a solution on the internet, I came across this website (https://www.consumeraffairs.com/online/paypal_02.html) where everybody is complaining about Paypal. Most of the complains were actually similar to the one that I have. I thought Paypal is a credible company but now I have started feeling worried about my funds stuck in the accounts.
I cannot say that Paypal is scam, Because scam includes sending a fake message from paypal stating that the money is on hold until  the shipping agent has been paid. So this fake is obvious if you know how paypal works. Perhaps you know that in paypal had no problem sending mails this non existing account holder. Therefore in your case I think there is some a little misunderstanding happened.

Payment Gateway Allows Recurring Payments
March 08, 2017, 09:43:43 PM
If PayPal really was just a scam then it would not be one of the biggest payment gateways (if not the biggest) in the world. Clearly whoever you heard from must have been doing something sketchy on their accounts. I have used PayPal for many years and have not had any problems with my account that could not be fixed with a simple customer support email (minor stuff).

Yeah they will not going to be this far if they've got some scam accusations throughout their entire service. There's no way that PayPal will be turning out to be a scam, it's a matter of business and trust. And they are the most trusted payment processor for a lot of years already and I'm sure that they will not do such as shady things just for the sake of one time profit.

Paypal as a buyer is great but paypal as a seller is terrible since the buyers will try sometimes to get advantage of the chargebacks and most of the time paypal sides with them, this is one of the reasons paypal is not accepted in the forum as a medium to buy bitcoins.

I don't think that there's some glitch or the security of PP is that weak. Well I stopped using them but still I trust them when it comes to storing my dollars there and I haven't read any news that they was breached since I just used them for a couple of times. People are just misleading others to tell that it is a scam.

Giving your paypal email means they have it and can use it for their own scams. They're not going to buy anything or arrange payment or shipping. All they want is the email address. ... One scenario is the scammer will send an email from a spoofed (phony) PayPal address that states money has been sent to your account.

--snip--

but i do not have any experience about paypal either it is scam or not. but i think its service is not as more effective in more places, in my country paypal service is not available in my country and therefor we cannot use it.

I don't know where you live but is worldwide known that paypal service is not a scam and at sure is more buyer's friendly than any crypto currency including bitcoin. All they understand that bitcoin payments are irreversible which could be a hassle if you buy something from a fraudster seller. Moreover, some times in the past I was willing to use my bitcoins to buy a good or service but for many companies it's not an accepted payment. For example have you ever tried to buy (online) playstation plus without your credit card or a paypal account?

paypal is actually not scamming nor a scam site,when a service is just popular and getting used by so many people,i'm sure their quality will be lowering and so many problem will occur either major or minor problem to their clients,they can't take care of their clients and can't pleasing all of their clients so it will result so many complain




I don't think they do freezes all the accounts without enough reasons,if something like that happen ask their support but guidance and help.As far as i know when a company did those things the reason behind it,is that too many clients are using their service and when it comes to the point that it becomes overpopulated or crowded its really hard to handle and monitor the actions taken by the people or clients.This may be the reason why it freezes sometimes.I have so many friends who are using Paypal,and I didn't hear complains from them and their transactions went smoothly also.Just ask the support if you encounter problems or cases like that.Hope this would help you  Smiley Smiley Smiley

I rarely use this payment system and no problem I have not encountered. I am sure that it is a reliable service. Many of my friends use PayPal for payments

It is definitely a reliable service, but some of there actions are too much problematic. The fees are still acceptable but the sudden freeze of funds, not letting to withdraw are some major issues faced by me.  But if this issues are away, then it is quiet easy for me to transact.

I'm using Paypal for a very long time around ten over the years, but my funds were never frozen. It looks like they may be suspecting the source of your funds. If you can able to prove that those are your funds then they will release those funds for sure. For online payments PayPal is very convenient and it is not a scam.
but i do not have any experience about paypal either it is scam or not. but i think its service is not as more effective in more places, in my country paypal service is not available in my country and therefor we cannot use it.
there are countries where PayPal is not willing to open in that country probably because of the blacklist. but I think paypal is not a scam
I use paypal quite often to shop, and I rarely find problems in paypal

I often use this payment system. I've never had any problems with this service. I am sure that this is not the crooks. There is no reason to think so

Paypal is not a scam. I think Paypal is the most known payment mode online. Why? Because it's accepted worldwide as a mode of payment in many online shops. Paypal have a feature of frozen your account and Cashback to prevent any kind of scams.

Its not a scam but just because of using fiat it lacks flexibility and is expensive. 3.4% + 20p to get paid for a product as a business for me, thats probably twice as high as i would like.

I don't think paypal is a scam because it's not. I don't use paypal more often but i think the thing that makes paypal a scam is those persons who take advantage of paypal's chargeback to take their money back and scam people but in conclusion i don't think paypal is scam because if they do then no one will use it.
because it is probably a bad person won a court when you get a buyer evil in paypal, Some of the facilities could endanger PayPal for sellers and buyers. so beware These events often occur on ebay

PayPal the most famous and known by people payment system. They have online chat support and phone number to contact with them. A lot of people can buy through Paypal on a different site like ebay, amazon, online shops which includes PayPal as a payment system. Indeed they are working so long on this market but if you get in trouble with purchasing or sending your funds they always can support you

You're right, it is a large amount of paypal user says a lot, including a system reliability. Maybe some of the problems, and sometimes they happen possibly linked to user errors, which allow any mistakes then.
