The Great Reset (@thegreatreset99) reported@RepJasonCrow When someone is cleaning up the corruption, look who yells the loudest (ie Crow). Elon tells the story about shutting down fraud at PayPal and they would complain the loudest.

hialex (@hialex_sol) reportedToday a designer in Buenos Aires getting paid by a US client has 3 bad options: • Wire → 3–5 days + $25–50 fees • PayPal → 8%+ taken • Crypto → confusing, needs SOL/ETH for gas, public addresses leak income None of these feel like a normal wallet. We fix that.

Sheikh Ali Ashraf (@SkAliAshraf) reportedThis is not just about memories. This email is linked to my Upwork (Odesk), Payoneer, PayPal, Apple ID. My entire livelihood and financial access are blocked. I am a professional and this AI error is causing me severe damage. Please prioritize a human review. @Google @TeamYouTube

Uncle_Jeff (@jeffsparo_01) reported@john322226 PayPal didn’t wake up one day and randomly decide to restrict Nigerians. Over time, the volume of fraud, chargebacks, and account abuse coming out of the region built a reputation that made them tighten controls. When a system is built on trust, once that trust is repeatedly broken, restrictions follow. The uncomfortable truth is that a relatively small percentage of people involved in scams ended up defining the global perception of everyone else. And companies like PayPal don’t operate on emotions or fairness, they operate on risk models. If the risk is high, access gets limited. Nigerians didn’t just get locked out… we priced ourselves out of trust. Until there’s consistent accountability, stronger enforcement, and a cultural shift away from glorifying “smart moves” that are actually fraud, platforms will keep treating the whole market as high risk...

. (@ZootedCunt) reported@milavxx Ah it was PayPal, and rev id be unbothered if my hours weren't cut recently but yeah it's scummy second time I've had a problem so it's not that common luckily
-
Marwane (@MarwaneResub) reported@AnthonyEclipse Exactly. And the chargeback problem goes deeper than just the supplier. Most stores hitting that wall are still processing everything through Stripe or PayPal — one flag and your getting shutdown.

David Solheim (@davidtsolheim) reported@Austen I feel like we are at the stage before people trusted paypal where "there's no way i'd trust the internet with my bank account information". Slow and steady, then all at once.
