My paypal earnings just show up; I don't even get notified that a payment is in there. I have to sign in to see the transaction. So, for me, in both cases, there is what could be considered a vulnerability to being framed, I guess, as you've speculated. Never doubt a small group of concerned citizens can change the world; it's the only thing ever has |

He's a long distance trucker and he was out of state. I just said I had no deposit slip at the drive up, and they said no problem. Scary. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

You might want to query unknown deposits, but making it easy to get paid seems to be a useful thing. With paypal you do have to accept the deposit on personal accounts (a buddy of mine refused a payment I made to him... mostly as it was a all joke). Might be possible to automate that though. It is said that your life flashes before your eyes just before you die.... it's called Life |

| beachbumbabs Member since: Sep 3, 2013 Threads: 6 Posts: 1600 | Maybe I have that service automated somehow, because mine is a personal account on Paypal, and the money just shows up. I'll have to look into that. Never doubt a small group of concerned citizens can change the world; it's the only thing ever has |

| 1nickelmiracle Member since: Mar 5, 2013 Threads: 24 Posts: 623 | I think it's perfectly fine to be deposit money into someone's account with the right information. It would be much worse not being able. Under the right circumstances banks make money denying deposits and consumers pay such as overdrafts, so overall not scary and a good thing. Chase I think is stopping them last time I looked. |
