  @Nintendeal Wish I could help. Mine went through with no issue. Payed with PayPal and used the Walmart mobile app.

  @PayPal is there a way to talk to a human about an issue? I keep getting bounced back and forth between PayPal and Synchrony, each saying it’s the others responsibility

  I stopped working in Security last summer after a nearly 20 year run in the industry. This is nothing new. Security inherently has a communication issue. For example around 2010 or so PayPal launched their first bounty program. They fumbled my RCE report as out of scope, so I wrote a blog post about it that had a moment of fame on HackerNews. The CISO of PayPal personally emailed me to work with him on it. All it took was a very simple and frank conversation to make it right. But fast forward to 2026 and you have massive layers of people that have no real authority to talk to you and no real experience in what you are reporting. Keep in mind that these programs are designed to quietly make you go away in an effort to de-risk unknown unknowns. I would argue in 2026 that public bug bounty programs should only be thought of as a funnel to private bounty programs. You have to have some level of mutual trust between the researcher and corps, and the private programs have a better arrangement for that. Use the private program to pipeline researchers to FTE's. There have been so many instances in my security journey where if the entity had just communicated with me on a frank and regular basis, I would have been a very vocal cheerleader for them. To summarize - done well, a good bounty program is an exercise in managing frustrations, helping people grow, and jointly disclosing vulns for public education.

  Built 443 products with AI. Zero staff. Zero subscriptions. Zero manual delivery. The system runs itself. I just watch. PayPal IPN handles payments. A local server delivers files. GitHub Pages hosts storefront. All free. This is the ghost economy.

  @alluringmedia Just spent 30 minutes on PayPal arguing with their AI agent before finally finding their phone number online to talk to a real person. I am certainly not the only customer to do this so how is this cheaper than a roster of educated humans to fix those unruly details of commerce.

  Stripe and Banxa have now been added to checkout. They do not include the extra 4.90% fee that PayPal has. Please try Banxa or Stripe first. If they don’t work for you, PayPal, cards, and crypto are still available and have been working without issues. 🤝 At the moment I’m still working on the payment providers because I want everything to work as smoothly as possible. I’m also adding some interesting new features to the website.👷 As for COAs, I think ideally we’ll release around 10-14 of them somewhere between June 20 and July 10. I wish I could do them sooner, I wish I could do them sooner, but there are still a few things being finalized behind the scenes.😑 In any case, COAs are only a matter of time.⏳

  Thank you, @FBIDirectorKash . Please find & close down a group calling itself “Fabulous” which hacked my PayPal account and charged me multiple times in one day for no goods or services that were then charged to my Chase credit card account & marked “international” on my bill.

  @mypagacare @mypagacare Good day, I tried linking my PayPal account to Paga so I can withdraw my funds and it keeps saying the credentials doesn't match but everything seems okay from my end. Please fix this.

  Hey @PayPal, your refund system is definitely broken. How is it legal that you issue me a refund credit, then ask me for the info regarding my refund credit, and then you automatically deny my refund after you just received the very information you asked me for? Make this make sense, because this isn't right!
