My dumb friend is out 14K$ due to calling the number on an e-mail.

When the phone called was placed and answered, they did a remote desktop access takeover while he was on the phone with them. He was had from that moment on.

I get the "PayPal TOS has changed. Click here to find out more" emails.
I've never opened them.

When it first started with eBay....it worked great.
Then, about a year ago, I started having problems. When trying to close my account, they said my answers to the security questions were all incorrect.
I think I know my favorite color and the make of my first car

From that point on...I was unable to do anything with my account.

In my email today...

"Would YOU like to increase the volume of your ejaculate by 400%?"

I cant imagine how useful that would be.

just gone.
Good luck
Whenever buying something online, I ALWAYS use a credit card.
That was if it goes south I make one phone call and kill the charges.
Paypal hates that because it takes away their power.
