<p>[QUOTE=&quot;josh&#039;s coins, post: 1976205, member: 51487&quot;]What if PayPal decides to crack down on this issue? As mentioned earlier PayPal could target CoinTalk as people are listing here saying they will only accept Paypal gift. If you look at it from PayPal&#039;s perspective if there is an increase of complaints from people getting screwed since they paid using gift and Paypal can&#039;t help them it makes PayPal look bad even though it is clearly stated that this sort of thing is against the rules. It will damage their reputation so the executives may make the decision to take action on this issue and CoinTalk could become a place that PayPal would target. There could be a lot of issues if and when this does happen. If PayPal where to target CoinTalk along with many other sites they could do anything from demanding that Paypal gift can&#039;t be used as payment from transactions on this site and might request information such as every members email address so that they can add them to a list to keep an eye on in order to somewhat enforce this. But they might also demand that CoinTalk adds a PayPal express service to the website which would increase the cost to run coinTalk as such a service will take up a good amount of server space which will end up in adding more gigabytes to the servers that keep cointalk running which will then increase monthly overhead costs. Which then could have the possibility to force CoinTalk to shut down or downgrade in the event that the costs can&#039;t be covered by this new ad program, CT supporters, or by Peter&#039;s personal finances.</p><p><br /></p><p>The likelihood of all of this happening is slim to none but it is a good idea to weigh every possibility. [USER=1]@Peter T Davis[/USER] the risk as described above is very minimal but it would be in your best interest as the representative of CoinTalk to take action now and encourage the staff to stamp out PayPal Gift as an accepted form of payment on this site. This way if PayPal were to take action and contact you Peter about this issue you can simply state that The Staff here at CoinTalk are instructed to edit or even remove postings that lists PayPal Gift as an accepted form of payment. We cannot however make any attempts to monitor what happens between members using our Conversation service as CoinTalk is not liable in any shape or form for how Members decide to use our conversation service.</p><p><br /></p><p>So that is what I suggest. Make a simple change now to avoid future frustrations.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
