Madness (@StopTehMadness) reportedCongratulations on HQ (Tate Hotel), young lads. It's beyond time to show up or shut up @Cobratate @TateTheTalisman . Infinite Money Glitch, my PayPal. In fact, pay @yacineMTB first. Otherwise, I'm going to assume you're working for the Away Team and *actually* are lying *****.

Krzysztof (@KrzyDays) reported@Kaichaikat @vexmlk @PayPal This was my point ... PayPal and PayPal Business = 🤡 The point was make a real business and use proper practices ... you wont have these issues
-
Krzysztof (@KrzyDays) reported@Kaichaikat @vexmlk @PayPal I dont know what PayPal business account does or does not do... i was referring to regist3ring an LLC, having a tax i.d. and issuing invoices directly for commissions and not utilizing PayPal 'Traditional' people would say but it provides you legitimacy and legal records (hell of a lot less likely to worry about issues like this using verified, insured and nearly universally accepted and preffered vendors)

John Langley Doe (@JohnLangleyDoe) reported@Hannuska2109 @tak_ya_anna Ok, Hansuka. This isn't deflecting, this is mirroring back and reflecting the very same arguments you used to smear people(do you need quotes?). You have a habbit of making snide remarks and then telling people to calm down and "this is an emtional response"... "Ok lets be objective. Journalist, PHD, educated" you said. Sorry for putting this in simple terms as I'm sure it doesn't reflect on your superior intellect but how does that change how someone handles a tramatic event whilst being harassed? On topic though, can you tell us your level of education so we can act more like you? You then go on to deflect after finger pointing with a false comparison to arrive at a pre-determined conclusion with zero proof of any wrong doing. You said "No location. No names. No video. No witnesses. No context." You said you wanted names and address but fail to mention how someone being harassed will obtain these and then simply ignored the rest. What will you do with names big man? If she came out with a name you wouldn't believe it anyway. Should she stay around to take witness statements like you asked for? What format would you like these in? Again do you expect people being harassed to immediately start recording? But then you go after her for recording after the fact? What format would you like your "context in? She gave context. Read slower. You then go on to make another post about how there was no transparency yet two people donated on paypal which I have seen. Me and I believe the other blurred name to be Cyn. These paypal transfers went to a jar that can only be collected by the hero. For someone so eager to tell me about their experience it seemed to fall apart when it came to a basic understanding of a monobank jar. And yet another post about "wanna be bloggers" forgive me for reflecting some of your awful attitude back to you yet again but as a glorified Nova poshta driver, surely you can admit you were wrong all along? Now don't get it twisted, your JAQ method of attack and insincere questions have been cleared up will I the donor and Anna the collector be receiving an apology? Again no emotional responses and fake objectivity please, you can ignore every other question and deflect with an apology instead. God forbid I have to mirror your own actions back to you again. Is it sinking in yet?

Anne.Chege_ (@anne_dottie) reported@MohamedAli49071 @SONOIYA47 The problem with Kenyans is distancing yourself from a problem because it hasn't happened to you (YET). Hao watu wote complaining about PayPal cannot be wrong. As a PayPal user, join in the discussion ask for accountability so that it never happens to you.

Waldek Mastykarz (@waldekm) reportedPayPal integration is critical: payments failing means revenue lost. But PayPal's sandbox mostly covers happy paths. How do you test what happens when things go wrong? This Dev Proxy preset injects random PayPal API errors into your requests. The error responses are modeled after PayPal's official Postman collection, so they match what you'd see in production. Get started in 2 commands: devproxy config get paypal-random-errors devproxy Now your PayPal API calls randomly fail with realistic errors: authentication failures, invalid requests, resource not found, server errors. Each one uses PayPal's actual error structure, so your parsing code gets exercised with real-world formats. The randomness is the point. You're testing what happens when errors land where your code doesn't expect them. A payment intent fails mid-checkout, a refund request gets a 500, a customer update returns a 404. Run your checkout flow against this preset and watch what happens. Does your UI show a useful message? Does your backend retry or give up? Does your logging capture enough detail to debug later? Grab the preset and find the gaps in your error handling before a real payment fails. When did you last test your PayPal error handling?

SlimeBattery🔞 (@SlimeBattery) reportedThis is probably the last time i'll be able to get a payout from Itch, as i've been kicked off payoneer and paypal goes out of their way to hunt down nsfw artists. So its possible that after this i'll simply shut down my itch page. (game might make it to steam one day tho)

ʙʀᴏᴏᴋʟʏɴ - (𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘀 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗻) (@zeninproblem) reported@gardenfresas But my case with PayPal is still open, and the other bank is reviewing the evidence. So hopefully I’ll get another $130 for the trouble.

Fallingfloor (@calopup001) reported@sh0ckth3syst3m Vgen does that because if it happens enough times paypal will charge them more to do business. "Problem playforms" like porn already have high transaction rates from people trying to claim porn they bought was fraud. Likewise, vgen will be punished if every scammer they let on the platform got a chargeback

M is blooming 💐🌱🍅🛸🦷🍥💐 (@history0fM) reported@peachandtrespp I kept refreshing and got 2 really good ones but non of the payment options worked so my cart timed out 💔 Tried PayPal, mastercard and visa and got the same error message everytime and then got my browsing activity suspended 💔
-
Rumeiria 🌸 Fae Dragon (@Rumeiria) reported@BatLycusx oof i see. but from my understanding most people use paypal where charging back isn't a big issue (i cant use pp so im not sure!) thankfully i was only ever scammed on etsy every artist i have commed on vgen so far has been lovely and trustworthy
