Ferrari Mailing List: Re: No Ferrari Content NFC - Business Banking Question

[Jason Polzer (jason]

Be wary of Paypal.  Sorry I can't answer the banking question.

Paypal took back a sizable amount of money from me two months after I 
received it.  Of course I did not have enough money in my Paypal account 
so they just took it from my bank account/credit card.  Apparently the 
monies I received from their paypal account was funded with a stolen 
credit card.  So Paypal's policy is the legit user gets hosed out of 
goods AND money.

Use an insured method for international trade if the $ amount makes you 
sweat.  I've never used one, only heard about them.
