Paypal security measures

Post by Reeltarded »

They'd never say, but the real security is the 5 hour conversation you have with the service rep everytime you have to make a 2 minute transaction.

I would like to transfer $10. 5 hour conversation.

I would like to send someone $10. 5 hour conversation.

I like the original paypal. I meet you up by the Hwy 1 bridge and I'll pay you, pal.

I have to be honest and say that racist me much prefers the new support staff being in the country they are serving just as any thinking racist anywhere in the World would wish. This last girl allowed me lots of time to joke about how angry I was and she thought it was funny, so there's that.

Turns out it was my first name causing problems. I use my middle name. They thought i was on a no buy list or something. Effing Peepal. Wizzers.

So, you're one of those, huh? That'll learn ya.

I'm one of those without a middle name. Flipping forms that require "MI" and I have nothing to put in that box. I really hate the NMN thing. I don't think I've seen it on a document since my last draft card.

Who actually has money with PP? I burn through it with an eBait purchase whenever I have some and when I do, it isn't much.

I won't let them talk to my bank and I only put enough money in to make purchases and never have even 50 bucks trapped in a scandal with a Nigerian ShamWoW! scam.

Look, they used them. I said in my auction no returns if used. Thing is I would wash them and just resell them as new but they keep soaking up all the water in the washer.

So, Mujibar goes for his job interview at PayPal, and they say "Can you use the words Green, Pink and Yellow in a sentence?"

He thinks a minute and and answers: the phone goes "Green, Green, " I Pink it up and say "Yellow."

Wait, I've got some Presbyterian jokes. Here all week...

Sorry, but I aint going by "Eugene". My mother, rest her soul, loved that name. She stuck it everything she could. But me? Nah.

Eugene
I know a Eugene. He introduces himself as Gene, fills out forms as Gene, but his father ALWAYS refers to him as Eugene.

I think once you make that choice, you feel like you have to defend it to the end.

It's not a bad name. If you had been a girl, well, Eugenie might be a different matter.

PP made me overdraft my checking account this last time around, even after I was meticulous about choosing the credit card number... They still took it from checking. I called them up real pissy and they emailed me a document saying it was their fault. Took it to the bank and all's good. :)

I have a separate account just for paypal in a different bank from my real checking account.

I transfer money in as needed, and only keep a few $ idle in it.

If they mess me up they can't bounce my mortgage check.

Also the same reason I don't have a debit card.

Do not limit yourself to what others think is reasonable or possible.

Hey Eugene, I'll trade ya for Larry. Well maybe not, that's an across the board trade now that I really think about it.
