Paul

let me clarify ... my purpose was not to taint the money transfer industry as a whole ... but you must know the politics behind the PayPal sale, and their change of policies ... hell I am not even "in that industry", so you must know I am sure.

PayPal (more namely eBay Inc.) has formed this holier than thou attitude. while most people I know personally have only had a couple thousand dollars frozen ... I have heard of many much larger transactions being put in limbo too ...

I just think that if eBay (or any other company) want to handle our money, they need to play by similar rules to charter banks and such ... or at least be held accountable for this "freezing of funds" practise.

If this were a few isolated incidences, the Feds would not have stepped in ... this is fairly common practise, where the ones reporting the fraud are being penalized ... this will cause people to weigh the risks involved in reporting a fraud, and choose to do nothing, for fear of flagging their own account. This draconian way of thinking has got to go!

BTW ... I checked out your site and it is pretty cool. I never knew you existed until yesterday. I do know

I hope this clears the air a bit.

Cheers!
