[Tigers] off topic / paypal

[Larry Mayfield]

  Ebay and paypal, when sending you email/correspondence, will use your 
real name to address you (that is the one you used when you set up your 
account in their secure system).  If you are receiving email without 
being addressed by your real name, it is a scam...

But, also, regards the bank transfer number, yeah, if you want instant 
purchasing with pay pal, you have to do it. Other wise you must use a 
credit card and that is even scarier.  I was reluctant many moons ago, 
but have had good service from paypal. You also need to give them a 
credit card as well.  The credit card is back up to the bank account fro 
which they transfer money to pay for what ever you bought. If the card 
expires, then they use a eCheck system to get funds and that can take up 
to a week or two to clear.  So far, I am happy with the experience. I am 
a 100% positive feed back guy also (big whoop, lol).

no, i don't work for ebay or paypal...
