    I voted, and I don't see how legit ppl get banned from paypal.
    I use to have a friend that had this same logic, but he was bidding on ebay with stolen money.
    I've been using paypal for going on 6years and Never had an issue where I feared that I'd be banned..lol

    I agree Never Leave out money Online.

    Although PayPal is good in Safety, But remember It is made by Human Beings ;)

    Not true and not to mention, the sites you link to (the first link is the worst) are only about the negatives of PayPal.

    If you don't conduct in questionable activity and you use the service in a way in which PayPal permits (country, age, correct personal information, etc.) then you have virtually nothing to worry about.

    Not at one time no. That's why I have checking and savings accounts.

    I am enrolled in the MMA but since one of my savings accounts make around the same percentage, I just put it there and mainly keep money in my PayPal account if I intend to spend it within a short period of time.

    I keep $20+ in my Paypal. And withdraw them through Bank. That's my money, not Paypal's :)

    I keep less than 10$, well simply because I never had more than that. Where would it come anyway? Little need to refill my account, I don't shop online.
