Hello guys this is my first bad and worst experienced at my paypal account. Unauthorized Payments. Parts of the money was my memorable one because some of those were part of my first payout at mylot...the payments still verified in spite of my protest since the Paypal admin said that I have an insufficient reason to canceled it. Anyway, I would just charge it to my experiences... Have you been hacked by some unknown sites? Let's share...keep on writing...

Can you rephrase it.. did you mean to say that your money in your PayPal account was hacked? Like your funds gone?? You are on a verified account, right? Did you give your password to anyone recently. Sorry this happened to you.

That's right my friend, it was really a sad thing for me. I never knew how did it happen. I can't give the detail of the site that hacked it...this is not maybe the right place...anyway I already change paypals password to make it safe...i would just forget it...charged to experience...thanks my friend for your compliment..

Thanks for the Br by the way. I'm so sorry that had happened to you yeah.. I've read somewhere that it's best to change password every 3 days. That is the best thing to do should you have a big fund coming up to withdraw soon. Don't be sad so much, my friend.. and I really hope it won't happen to you ever again, or anyone else for that matter.

Been a member of paypal less than a year... and i am glad this has not happened to me... but i am afraid that it might... i get paid through paypal by two of the mystery shopping companies that i work for... and it would really be a bummer if the money is used for unauthorized payments... so what i do i immediately tranfer the money to my eon card account the minute it reaches $150 that way, i don't pay the transfer fee of 50 php... and no unauthorized payments will ever be made because the account will de empty of funds...

I think you're right my friend. My first payout was stay longer at paypal because I was not able to open immediately an eon account. I am curious and interested of your mystery shopping companies....anyway, I got an idea from what you said..thanks you very much my friend...

Hi, how was it possible the paypal released payment to the site without you confirming it? or was there like a trial period then you wanted to cancel after that and you were not allowed to? I once did something like that, I subscribed for a 30-day trial but cancelled before the end of the trial period, I did not encounter any problem with paypal and was able to stop the transaction.

I don't know my friend, when I answered those application they gave me I was just surprised after a couple of days upon knowing that I don't had sufficient information that proves the unauthorized transaction..never mind, i would just forget it...thanks for responding then...
