  Check your login activity (someone may already be inside) He said: "Go to Settings. Click Security. Select 'Manage your logins.'" A screen appeared showing every device and browser that had logged into his PayPal account with dates, locations, and device types. There was a login from a city he'd never been to. From 4 months ago. On a device he didn't own. He said: "Someone accessed your account from another location. They didn't drain it that would trigger a fraud alert. Instead, they've been making small charges through a preapproved payment they set up. $2.49 here, $1.99 there. Small enough that you'd never notice. This is called a low-and-slow attack, and it's the most common type of PayPal fraud because it flies under the radar." They logged out every device. Changed the password. Enabled two-factor authentication. Filed a dispute. He said: "Check this screen once a month. If you see a device or location you don't recognize, someone else has access to your account. Kill the session immediately."

  $PYPL ’s $53 Billion Bid Is a Premium to Distress, Not Full Value The reported Stripe-Advent offer is $60.50 a share, valuing PayPal above $53 billion at roughly a 28% premium to its pre-bid close. At first glance, shareholders should take the money. But the offer values PayPal at roughly 9x expected 2026 free cash flow, versus about 16x for Fiserv and Block. That looks less like a turnaround premium than a distressed entry point. The case for cashing out PayPal has earned its discount. The shares remain more than 80% below their 2021 peak, branded checkout slowed to 1% growth in late 2025, and competing wallets have steadily weakened the old checkout-button moat. Enrique Lores is also asking investors to underwrite another reset after two CEOs failed to convert ambitious product plans into durable growth. His plan is clean on paper: reorganize PayPal into three operating units, place Venmo inside a dedicated consumer-finance division, and generate at least $1.5 billion of savings over two to three years for reinvestment. The timing is the problem. Separately, PayPal’s existing technology overhaul carries an 18-to-42-month execution window, with infrastructure work expected to run into 2028. A cash offer removes the risk that savings arrive late, competition keeps moving, or better margins fail to produce better products. Where the bid gets cheap The underlying business is damaged, not dead. First-quarter revenue rose 7%, transaction-margin dollars increased 3%, branded checkout growth improved by one point from the prior quarter, and Venmo posted a sixth straight quarter of double-digit volume growth. Stripe would not be buying only current earnings. It would gain PayPal’s consumer distribution, Venmo, checkout relationships and the operating leverage created by Lores’s restructuring, while Advent gets a mature cash generator before the savings are visible. The asymmetry is obvious: public shareholders surrender the recovery upside, while the buyers assume execution risk at a depressed multiple. PayPal’s board reportedly sees the offer as inadequate, and that looks rational. Bottom line My read: reject $60.50, but keep the sale process alive. At roughly 9x forward free cash flow, the bid compensates shareholders for waiting, but not for handing over the upside if the restructuring works. PayPal should force a materially higher price or remain independent long enough to prove the plan. A premium to a broken stock is not the same as fair value.

  Someone called us "a WordPress site with an AI writer." Sure: 227k lines of TypeScript, a 64-table ledger, a real-time CPM ad auction, Stripe + PayPal payout rails, an MCP server so AI agents can read us AND buy ads, and a newsroom that renders its own nightly video recaps.

  I have no issues with closing customers account - it's their prerogative. However if you close an account, you should return the funds to the customer. It's not your money! Same for PayPal too

  @alihadad90 @PayPal @AnthropicAI Anthropic AI supports Libya and accepts payments from Libyan cards (at least my ATIB mastercard). Paypal is a different issue. But I speculate that they need a well-regulated environment and strong judicial system to operate. Today, both are shaky.
