That sucks.
I have a discontinued visa on my PayPal and the account I have linked is one I setup especially for PayPal and I don't keep any money it in till I get ready to make a purchase. Right now the most they could get is 5 bucks.

Woke up to check my bank today and realized I had nothing in there... Checked transactions to see I've been cleaned out by a hacker who somehow got my password and userid. Not good. I guess I'll get it back according to PayPal, who have agreed to send me a free security key to ensure this doesn't happen again in the future. Not Impressed |

I was at an application security seminar a few months ago in Moncton and the guy doing it mentioned that he does all his online banking in a completely different browser than the one he uses for the rest of the internet (ie. Firefox is main browser, Opera for Banking). After seeing some of the stuff he was able to do I'm starting to think I might as well for security reasons. |

Paypal was good, until they got too big and then ebay bought them (and blah blah blah). I hope you get yer money back asap. |
