The paypal transaction is greater than the bitcoin, I'm sure paypal is not a scam because a lot of countries and banks that are already connect with paypal. In addition they are companies that already go public.
Yeah, almost some popular company is accepting PayPal as a payment method, PayPal is not a scam, but once you violated their rules probably your account will hold, it's easy to resolve it if you're not doing anything wrong, I've some transaction before and some is they charge back the money (to scam me) but I've won since I've legit account with a valid proof.

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

No Paypal is not a scam. Paypal is a legit business in which they are registered and trusted in the transfer of funds. If Paypal did bad thing they can be easily track down while in the fake companies you won't be able to track them down because they are not real. Paypal is 3rd in terms of online transactions it comes right after VISA and Mastercard.

Some people say are scammed with paypal
Some people say they are scammed by paypal
And knowing how this big firms work, their resolution center is binding makes me thing for 99% of the users they provide a very solid service, but that 1% or less feel that paypal service can be a scam. For me personally I don't use their service very often and I am not

Maybe we can say its a scam because we are made to pay the price for financing scammers with our bitcoins, maybe a partial payment protection plan should be introduced

Exactly. Paypal has been doing business for many years and if it was scam, it would have been closed by now. Paypal is the biggest  leader once it comes to online payments and they have rule this. Thats why they charge high fee for their good service. But now bitcoin is giving all such services also free of cost Grin.  So people are switching to bitcoins quickly.

What interest do you mean?
I think paypal do not lend to customers?
moreover fee for the transaction is not too large. so I think people who say that paypal is a scam just nonsense

What interest do you mean?[1]

[1] He probably means the transaction fee. It's just so big if you ask me. People complain about it all the time. It's a shame they don't know bitcoins. Or maybe they do, but too lazy to read all the necessary things so they settle with Paypal.

[2] That is correct.

[3] Not too large? "The fee for each transaction is 2.9% plus $0.30 USD of the amount you receive" Considering that the fee is on percentage, the larger money that you send/receive, the larger fee there would be. 2.9% of 1 million USD would be 29K USD. Where exactly are they going to use that large fee? They basically just moved your balance to another account on their database.

I think that PayPal is a safe way, you have a code to use that allows you to keep your money safe.

So many people are, how much has this payment system, speaks for itself. Perhaps someone with the event of the kind of problems or neponyatki with paypal, but everything has its explanation.

I do not believe all these stories about what paypal cheating and accused of fraud. Most likely this is due to the spread of negative competitors and is purely designed purpose.

If someone believes that PAYPAL is engaged in fraud, it does not mean that someone makes to use the services of the payment system. Leaving everyone can do and in its sole discretion.

I fully agree with you and say even more than that in contrast to the bitcoin users, paypal customers have the legal possibility to protest or protect their consumer rights. Of course not everyone is like interest on financial transactions, or what the conditions are, but still solid enough paypal and a good payment system.

No, paypal isn't a scam but some scammers were using paypal to scam people and thats absolutely true. Nowadays you shouldn't trust no one immediately because they are offering something that is legit specially those popular payment sites like paypal. They were offering products being sold to you and they wanted you to have deposited it through their paypal accounts and yet they scammed you. Some were selling bitcoin that doesn't come to the buyer they only wanted the money from buyer and hasn't bitcoin to give.

I got scammed by them, when I bought cloud mining contract from famous scam service eobot they told me that I can only withdraw after 180 days but just after 90 days they said that time for dispute has already past, I know I was a fool to trust a scam cloud mining but paypal should have charged back the funds after they realized I used it in bitcoin related business.

I also had a similar problem where I sold bitcoin using Paypal. After receiving the paypal money, Paypal immediately froze my account and asked me to explain the transaction. I was very sincere to them and even provided transaction details from localbitcoins.com to them. I only came to realize after 3 months that the money had been returned to my account but the account was limited. Now I can not withdraw the funds because I am not a US resident.

Even if they didn't say that the dispute has already passed, you still wouldn't win. Digital goods isn't covered by the Buyer's Protection Policy. So many people want to get out of a cloud mining scam once they realized that it's a ponzi scam. Like, don't you do your own research? A simple search on google would tell you that all of these "legit" investment sites are following a simple scam concept. They use the investments of the new people to pay the earlier investors.

You should've filed another dispute or at least tried to contact support and say that you were scammed. I doubt that it would work, but you should've at least tried.
