salmonella (@blueyeshadow444) reported@s0_sm0l Yeahhh. Their account was just like yours so my gullible *** thought it was either a glitch or an alt for dms. Paypal wasn't letting me send them the money so I sent a steam gift card to their email. I'm okay and I can definitely recover from this but it kinda sucks!

Bill Crowell (@n4hpg) reportedI still do not see the use case for Bitcoin. It's not secret once your public key is known as all transaction history is visible in the blockchain. From a utility standpoint, I already have electronic money used in everyday transactions. It's called PayPal. With border guards now routinely unlocking and searching peoples mobile devices, the idea that you can cross borders and take wealth with you secretly is an illusion, too. The scarcity argument is also a straw man. Just because something is scarce doesn't make it intrinsically valuable or useful. Folks point to the value of a "proof of work" or the energy consumed in "mining" bitcoin. This would be like saying that a table is more valuable because someone sanded it by hand instead of using a power sander. Just because it's hard doesn't make the outcome more valuable. I've interviewed many Europeans who survived WW2. What was valuable in war are gold and diamonds. In SHTF with the grid and networks down, how are you going to exchange that Bitcoin without access to the blockchain server network? Bartering in gold, silver, ammunition or other things of value will be more useful.

Mariya Valeva (@mariyav4leva) reportedHow to validate your idea with $0: 1. Find 10 strangers with the exact problem. Reddit, LinkedIn, Slack groups, X. Not friends. Strangers have no reason to be polite. 2. Ask what they're currently doing to solve it. If the answer is nothing, the problem isn't painful enough. 3. Ask what it's costing them. If they can't quantify it fast, the pain isn't real enough to build on. 4. Offer to solve it manually before you build anything. Spreadsheet, Notion, Zoom. If they say yes, you have a customer. If they say "I'll wait for the product," you have nothing yet. 5. Ask for $50 upfront toward the eventual product. Stripe link, PayPal, whatever. If they won't commit even that, the problem isn't painful enough. 6. Do it 10 more times. One is a coincidence. Three is a pattern. Ten is something to build on. The goal isn't to prove you're right. It's to find out where you're wrong before you've wasted six months.

Enzeyi Siema (@EnzeyiSiema) reported@PayPal 😪😪 My account has been operational for over one year now. Receiving payments almost weekly, just because I've received the highest payment so far, and it is not scam money, it is legit money, you decide to permanently take down my account.

Renee Libby (@ReneeLibby95084) reported@AndreaTaz4ever2 Unfortunately, I’m having some trouble with the PayPal. I put in a test amount tried to send it to you and was told that my device wasn’t recognized. With PayPal my device is always recognized. Unfortunately I’m not going to change my password or put in any other bank or credit card information. Not saying you did it or up to anything but having trouble.

Austin Rausch (@rwc1283) reported@AirbnbHelp urgent safety/billing issue. Reservation HM888ACCSH checks in tomorrow, Aug 3 at 3 PM. System glitched and billed wrong account. PayPal dispute PP-R-HWC-639909781 is open. Phone agents have repeatedly hung up on me and dropped me into dead mailboxes. I need a corporate case manager to take over this file and issue a payment update link immediately before I am denied service at the hotel.

LibertyBelle (@LibertyBelle_CA) reported@mitchellvii I lost my PayPal card because I never use it. My credit score went down one point, came back up again. I stopped using because I use Apple wallet. Also the way PayPal bills, if you do use it, is ridiculous. It is easy to forget or overlook. To me, it was just unnecessary bill to remember. I don’t miss it.

🇺🇦 Lorelei, your donation ********** (@Lorelei_0502) reported@PaasoMinna @BooBookBooze Sorry, I don't buy this. I’ve run collections with other people in the past, and the PayPal account we used provided updates several times a day with all transactions. We knew exactly how much was donated and by whom. After payments were made, invoices and bank transfer confirmations were shared in the chat. Becky claims she knew nothing, but she did know about the stroke. My biggest issue with her is that she silenced someone who was asking questions and bullied her into deleting screenshots of Dmitro’s wife’s luxury lifestyle back in Jan 2026. That person was tagging some of those who supported him, but they immediately blocked her and pressured her into staying silent.

James Yamamoto 🇺🇦 🇹🇼🇵🇭🇮🇱🦋#NAFO (@wesrtrstr88531) reported@Harri_Est Harri backed up the scamming Georgian legion too and trouble seems to follow him wherever he goes. Stop donating to private PayPal accounts and donate to registered charities!
