Hello,

I'm planning to register a Paypal account for occasional online shopping but I have some doubts regarding its security, especially after reading some reviews from http://www.paypalsucks.com/.

I only plan to use it because the seller prefers Paypal and I do not shop online regularly, which means I will leave the account idle most of the time.

Here's my question for users of Paypal: how safe do you think it is? Have you ever had any bad experience with paypal?

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply!

I have another question: what does "unverified" account means? It appears that unverified account has a limit of USD$1000 when sending money. Does that mean that one can send money up to USD$1000 even BEFORE the account is being funded, that is having NO money in the account?

Anyone who knows the answer to this please clarify.

Thanks!

Thanks for all replies.

What I don't understand is that why is there a limit of US$1000 for unverified user? Does that mean you can start sending money even before you have added a credit/debit card?
