Life in the Fair Lane

Paypal couldn't care less about persistent complaints about their business practices because Paypal itself is a less-than-honest operation. For as long as they have been in business, users have been ripped off, usually for large sums of money well into the thousands of dollars. Paypal's excuses for their long delays is they're looking for: 1. unpaid civil court judgments; 2. overdue child or spousal support payments; 3 unpaid state or federal taxes. Some complainants allege this scam can last as little as six months, and some for over two years. Of course, to whom the payee may owe money is none of their business, and they know that. What they're actually doing is creaming off the interest on these large sums, before finally releasing them to their naive victims. Why is this not illegal? Because Paypal is neither a bank nor any kind of financial institution. In fact, Paypal is nothing but an informal intermediary, no different from the guy next door. . They are not required to be licensed, insured, bonded, or regulated in any way. Still in doubt? Google "paypal is a fraud", "paypal is a rip-off", "fuxx Paypal","Paypal is Bullxxit!" or with other appropriate expletives.
