    Default Paypal - To Do or Not To Do

    Are you on paypalicon?
    Did you receive some new "policy documents" recently?
    Did Paypal send them to your To Do box?
    Did you read them?
    Did you try to acknowledge the changes?
    Or just delete them from your To Do box?

    But you couldn't ...

    Apparently, Paypal say that there is no way to remove the Policy Documents from the To Do box ... but i don't need to read them each time i logon.
    So what happens next time they update their policies?
    Presumably they will update the Policy Document that is already in my To Do box.
    However, from my perspective by then i will have probably learned to totally ignore my To Do box.
    They say that when they next update their policies they will send an email but what if that's missed? What if it gets incorrectly filtered out as spam?

    Could this mean that i might miss an important change in Paypal's policies?
    Does it not seem rather stupid to ask people to ignore a potentially important source of information?

    If i were into conspiracies i could have some very naughty thoughts about this issue.

    so true!
    just a pity that there's no "valid" alternatives.
    nice to know that the spirit of competition still lives.

    p.s.
    you're no longer perplexed?

    yet it is such a really good idea, sending money to email addresses.

    This is along the lines of 'valid even if not read by you....'

    I had a dodgy paypalicon message this morning, it was sent to completely the wrong email and told me that my account was full and I needed to transfer funds via a link... anyone else had that?

    has this possibly lost something in the translation?

    except...
    the first 419 i saw was in 1990/1991 in the form of a letter from a person who had been personally recommended by someone who runs [ran] my local post office.
    none of the major banks; advice services; not even the local police knew ANYTHING about these [problem]s. and the internet ...
    it was only when i contacted citi bank (who the cheque was drawn on) and they threatened to have ME arrested for being in possession of a forged cheque that i knew my gut feeling had any foundation.

    check the post master? excellent credentials. everyone trusted him. yes, i trusted the post master because everyone else did. afterwards no-one believed me!
    check someone in nigeria? well, not to trust them was certainly considered to be racist - that was made abundantly clear to me. yet doing any checks, you must be joking!
    the police said they needed the bank to tell them that there had been a fraud.
    the bank didn't want any publicity so they refused to do anything.
    but me "accepting a share of the responsibility"
    - do you honestly think that's so?
