Paypal is not a scam and exists for ages. It is the best way to do your online payments. Maybe some times they do a lot of silly rules for members, but still for me it is the best payment system online.  Cool

Paypal is for sure no scam, I can even laugh about it, I think that PayPal is even better than bitcoin and the fact is that you cannot even compare them with each other.
PayPal is doing great things and the refund system is the best.
i personally have no idea about that, either paypal is scam or not. actually i never used paypal because its service is not present in my country, so one thing is clear it has limited service and is not present all over the world.
You actually can make a conclusion about whether it's scam or not by seeing that paypal is based on U.S which is really well developed country and always and forcing any company to be submissive to their rules
and i think that once the company scamming even an individual then it will be doomed

Nope, the location of the company doesn't guarantee your safety. If you really can assure safety if the company is US based, then HYIP sites would just pretend that they're from US and then everyone will be so attracted to their website. It doesn't work like that. There are HYIP sites that has put US in their address but it doesn't add any legitimacy or guarantee in the website itself.

That logic only applies to actual companies that have an actual license/papers, office, workers, etc. (basically huge companies) and there's relatively not that much in the bitcoin world. A lot of fake companies can be found on the Internet and you can't personally confirm if they have an actual office/workplace in the US unless you live there.

i agree with you that paypal is not scam but i think bitcoin is better than paypal because bitcoin transaction is very much faster and bitcoin is available in anywhere for shopping and we know that payapal is not available in some country because a lot of people like to bitcoin than paypal.

it is simply a company serving a purpose. it is when that purpose is distorted and people try to take advantage of the system that things get jacked up

I really don't think PayPal is a scam. The company is very old and has provided great services to people around the world. I recommend using it mostly   for shopping goods if you are an individual and try not to sell bitcoins with it.

Its not something that is scamming but its sometimes weird how some transactions go and if you are doing it with paypal and friends its bad news for you because you cannot get your money back on that way.

PayPal is not a scam company at all, I even think that we can trust them fully because all my transactions went well always and I never had problems with it too.

I used Paypal before so I don't think is it a scam. Perhaps scammers are using Paypal's name to take advantage of other people. So Paypal should educate its user on how to spot scammers posing as Paypal.

They are not a scam, but keep in your mind that they may require you to reveal you identity and confirm it at some point.

They are performing under the governments laws and they must verify yourself in order to prevent them self from getting closed.

Paypal is not a scam but its actually too much tied with rules and regulations and some horrible terms and conditions and that is what makes PayPal look like a scam, but in reality its not.
That's right, probably because they're based on first world country which is US and really tied with the rules, can't even breaking any rules if they want to keep their company running and gain profit
most of regulations or rules which is released by paypal and inserted into their website just really limiting the freedom of their users in my honest opinion

Paypal is a company with a name, history and reputation. This looks like anything but scam.

Exactly, PayPal is money service with lon history of reputation. But like everything else people misuse it so you could get scamed by people using PayPal not PayPal itself.
They have tge rules and policies to protect the users that sometimes are not very effective but you can't blaim PayPal for all the bad.

     No, people are scammers and not paypal. Paypal is a payment system and I am not against it. I have used two times in the past and I will use it again when I will buy something from the other edge of the planet. I love bitcoin I want to transact with bitcoins but can I chargeback? Of course not because bitcoin is irreversible. But If I want to send money to a friend of mine miles away or to a trusted merchant of course I will transact with bitcoins. Thus, the main difference between these two cases is trust and paypal for me is something like an escrow.

Paypal is not scam, even sometimes paypal sucks but it the easiest way to shop and transfer money

That's the truth about paypal, even though we are hating on how paypal operates when it comes to the fees. But their service for their users are totally exceptional and we can't deny that still it is one of the best way to reach out those payments that we need to receive or to pay. Because they are already in the industry for a lot of years.
this time even though I was still using bitcoin when circumstances forced to pay for something, I also recognize that bitcoin is method of sending money that is very nice and makes it easy

I'm sure not. We all know that Paypal is a great company, besides that they are also working with banks, credit card and other financial institutions. If you are experiencing problems with paypal, contact their support team is always ready to respond, and the most important is they also have official offices that we can visit.
