Paypal Decision ~ What would YOU Do?

Discussion in 'General Chat' started by Cheap SEO Services, Oct 28, 2007.

    Let's say for example you had 1 million in your Paypal acct. Paypal contacts you and says "You must donate 10% of your account to some other Paypal acct holder. Otherwise, we freeze your account until you do."

    Here's the question. How would you respond? Would you go to court against Paypal or donate the money? if you donate, who to? It can't be to a fake acct either.

    Col :)

    Yeah, I don't think I'd bother with taking them to court. If I had $900,000 in my PayPal account I'd more than likely have 10x that in my bank account. ;)

    I'd donate the $ to an institute that studies how retarded I'd have to be to keep more than $44.83 in my PP acct.

    I'd take them to court, it's your money, they can't tell you to donate it to someone else.

    Although You could just donate it to someone you know and get them to donate it back.

    Forget court. Call the Gotti crew and meet the executives at the backdoor explaining to them that we're here to collect. Joking to the side. I'd take them to court and collect not just the million but another million for pain and suffering :)

    I bet paypal wouldn't do that. But if that happens, I will immediately seek the lawyers advice.

    My first impression will be "hah, another scam email!", then I'll confirm them and find a good lawyer.

    I think court takes so long time to resolve any type of issue so better I would just give the 10% to my bro's paypal account :D (It saves my time and money both)

    Give it to whoever they want me to give it to.

    Then contact the Italian Mafia.

    I'd say I'd do it by writing a cashiers check for the local church. So after I withdrew the money for the cashiers check I'd deposit it into my REAL bank account. Close PP account and it's done.
