Paypal has had a large number of past problems - just search the net - where users have had their funds 'stolen by paypal' etc...

I have had no problems myself with paypal as I refused to use it.

The point here is that their action is illegal under Australian Law, and they are refusing to comply, while BSing about how wonderful they are and how well they are protecting 'users'. Aussies are sick of that sort of crap from Pollies you know... :-)

Funnily enough - I only got the email because I HAD an ebay 'name' YEARS AGO but it was killed by ebay because of ONE wrongful complaint (after many successful purchases by myself) by a seller who had my account killed permanently! I refused to use them since. They seem to have 'ressurected' it... !!!
