<div class="IPBDescription">little security question</div> Hi everybody !

I would like to be a constellation member but... Is paypal a very secured system ? Is it sure ? I don't want to lose money or to make hazardous operations.

    128 bit encryption, thats as secure as ie6.0 can provide
    *edit* thats in the thousands of trillians of posible cypher.

    PayPal was created by eBay.com for easily transfering payments. Today, PayPal is used by many companies to get their customers payments faster and easier.

    I use to secruity test/hack and PayPal is extremly secure, which is a good thing.

    DONATE TO CONSTELLATION!

    But... I saw sites like <a href='http://www.paypalsucks.com' target='_blank'>www.paypalsucks.com</a> or <a href='http://www.paypalwarning.com' target='_blank'>www.paypalwarning.com</a> which are speaking about paypal frauds and abuses.

    Is there someone here who got any problem with Paypal ?

    I don't want to play with my money, I want to know more <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Reason why is because while Paypal is very secure, many of the people handling the stuff aren't. Paypal is highly secure itself, but lets say you go to eBay, and buy a $40 rare book, right? Well, the person your buying from instantly has $40 bucks. He doesn't even have to send you the damned thing, he has his money.

    But, if someone is caught, they can be sued for theft, fraud, and about 40 other things.

    But PayPal is secure, and Flayra has never once screwed anyone over with that. Only 1 person(very recently) has ever been revoked of Constellation, and that was for high racism.

    -edit- And Flayra gave him his money back, too.

    I use Paypal. Haven't had any problems with it. Go for it. Heck, I donated my $20 the other day. Money doesn't clear until Dec. 5th, though.

    I have had no problems with paypal but sometimes I hear scary stories. I reccomend it though!

    Damn, can't donate...

    I must subscribe to expanded use or not ?

    I know I'm stupid <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> but I don't want to wait for new year to donate.

    If you're using a bank account to pay, you have to wait 3 or 4 days for two deposits from PayPal to appear on your transaction list, then you have to click "Verify this bank account" and enter the two amounts deposited. I dunno what they do for credit cards.

    Using a credit card... They said the number will appear on on my next monthly transaction mail. It's in the end of december <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I will try this via a bank account.

    I'd remove your credit card first. Just in case.
