    Today, I’ve communicated with three FNB customer support representatives via phone call and email. Also, I received calls for PayPal c/care who were willing to help me resolve the complaints but apparently, the issue is from FNB. Unresolved.

    @sheppardpat47 @geneclez Also it doesn't matter who's right or wrong in this situation, getting someone's paypal taken down for this was such a scummy move lmfao, the artist got his main payment option taken down over this petty ****. Just ask for the ******* refund from the artist dude

    @Aerina_Rioka I commissioned some artists myself and never had any issues and never got scammed so far. I always check if the style is consistent, when they made their account and always use paypal goods or vgen, nothing else

    @AdsterraNetwork Why are my PayPal (Hyperwallet) payments being returned every time with new reasons? First “invalid account”, now “compliance issue”. This looks unprofessional. I need a clear solution and my payment released now. #Adsterra #PaymentDelay

    @AskPayPal hey I am having an issue with my balance, not showing up. I’ve looked at other places on the site and have not been able to resolve it. Thanks.

    @ItsToofy @MystiqueAlter Buyers are protected by the laws of their country, so it depends. They also are protected by PayPal when they pay through PayPal. Illegitimate charges back are a thing for us creatives: people buy on our stores, never report an issue and just issue a chargeback.

    Hi @PayPal @AskPayPal: I have 2-step verification enabled. But when logging in, it was not initiated. Is there any issue that MFA is being bypassed?

    @remixedcat @saraaa7447 That is why I ditched Paypal, the first moment they required a mobile phone it was: bye! I couldn't even deactivate the account without! Their problem as long as they force it. I've not missed it since.

    @EndWokeness PayPal Jaypal has 0 historical ties to America. Up until very VERY recent none of them existed in our country at all… anyone who believes this creature Is just as low IQ as she is. read a history book, you’ll do the same thing you see us doing hitting back against the absolute lies she’s telling people, to many are stupid enough to believe her and that’s the problem.

  • PascoSheriff
    Pasco Sheriff (@PascoSheriff) reported

    Pasco Sheriff’s Office is aware of several warrant scams. The scammer claims to be a Pasco Sheriff’s Office member or other local government employee informing the potential victim that they have a warrant and have to pay a fee. These payments are made through gift cards, PayPal, Bitcoin, Zelle, and other similar accounts. The scammer will provide PSO’s closed Grove location to appear authentic and spoof a number associated with PSO, such as our general information line. PSO will never contact individuals for any form of payment to resolve issues, criminal or otherwise. PSO stresses that these messages are not legitimate.

    @SevStarlightVT Pretty sure the paypal fee is against TOS, and I 100% would chase that down to report it because I'm just that petty. unsure about vgen's TOS.

    The commissions were stopped for an indefinite time, unfortunately PayPal suspended my account and I can't receive any amount... You can cancel the commission request with me, or wait until I try to solve these problems.
