Hello all Today I wanted to log in into my paypal account but my real password was invalid. I requested a new password and now works fine. Can anybody explain this? Thanks
Hmm.. Just remember that every website has to do some upgrade and maintenance. It's just one of those.
hacked or banned, probably both are grave feelings! anyways, it is better that you got it easy, but then a real password won't work, that too with paypal where security is so important, makes me feel a bit nervous!!
possible your account was hacked by someone. but possible you entered wrong password or real password but with CAPSLOCK on. And I hope your paypal and e-mail password was not same.
I hope you weren't on a phishing site and entered your password.......if you did, change it right away.
I once failed logging in several times...I assume this was caused by me transposing letters in my password. On another site, I was typing in the wrong password and could not figure out why it was not working. I'm a member on another forum that I have to get my password emailed to me once a month (about as often as I log into it) I swear I reset it to something I can remember, but each time I end up getting logged out my PW never seems to work *shrug* I have other stories/examples, but I think the point I am trying to make is that most errors are user based. I'm not blaming the user exactly, just saying it's generally their fault. Sometimes I do panic though, especially for things like payment processors...
Then it couldn't have been a bug , (or can it ?) Most probably a maintenance that would have caused the confusion. Well anyway , the button line is your account is safe and you do not have any problem with paypal.
