    Does Paypal support Terrorism & Mafia activities?

    Sorry to offend anyone, but I certainly believe that terrorists use paypal as a means of supporting their activities.

    What do you guys think?

    Well, I believe they use it as a way of shifting illegal money from one bank account to another, pretending to buy "Goods" when really they are using it as an easy way for payment of their illegal activities and so much more.

    No doubt in my mind that terrorist use paypal, and obviously paypal would know about these activities, but dont care and turn a blind eye to it.

    Uhmmm.. no.
    It's against paypal's terms to use paypal in countries where terrorists are currently active.. :rolleyes:
    Mafia activities are also against Paypal's terms so they definitely don't support it.

    This is a very serious allegations which is criminal in nature, do you have any proof to substantiate what you are saying? Especially in a public forum like this?

    paypal can be used for many illegal activities.

    e.g. if you want send unaccounted money from India to US.

    Create an account, buy Paypal dollars from a webmaster and send to US.

    as Paypal allows unverified accounts, it can never be 100% free from activities such as laundering.

    Paypal is just a middleman, a messenger. Like the saying says, don't shoot the messenger.
