Paypal has announced that they are going to block the Apple Safari web browser, along with a few other browsers. The online payment service, purchased by eBay for $1.5B back in 2002, in the good old days of rampant Internet mergers and acquisitions, has become a frequent target of phishers and hackers. Anxious to recapture their good name and to offer to sellers and buyers alike a more secure environment, PayPal plans to discontinue support for web browsers that do not include anti-phishing capabilities. If this plan goes through, PayPal will block Safari and older versions of Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, and Netscape.

Paypal has announced that they are going to block the Apple Safari web browser, along with a few other browsers. The online payment service, purchased by eBay for $1.5B back in 2002, in the good old days of rampant Internet mergers and acquisitions, has become a frequent target of phishers and hackers. Anxious to recapture their good name and to offer to sellers and buyers alike a more secure environment, PayPal plans to discontinue support for web browsers that do not include anti-phishing capabilities. If this plan goes through, PayPal will block Safari and older versions of Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, and Netscape. Paypal phish are as common as the cold. Here, the newest one claims that there have been foreign attempts to log into your Paypal account, and explains that if it wasn't you (which, of course, it wasn't) you should click on the link to verifiy your identity. Where does the link really go? Not to Paypal, that's for sure. In fact, it really goes to http://i-195-137-106-138.freedom2surf.net/login, which is a very convincing Paypal phishing site. We are asked all the time "How can I make money on the Internet?" or "Where can I learn how to make money on the Internet?" In fact, we're asked often enough about how to make money online - and we have a vested enough interest in making sure that people do it appropriately, without spamming and following the rules and observing best practices - that we now offer this article. If you have been frustrated trying to reach Paypal, well, you're not alone. Countless people have been unable to reach the Paypal website, receiving, instead, this error. A brand new phishing attempt invokes both Starbucks and Paypal, and starts out by saying "This email confirms that you have a pending payment to Starbucks (sales@starbucks.com) $119.88 USD using PayPal. This credit card transaction will appear on your bill as "PAYPAL *StarbucksStore"." Don't fall for it! Of course, all the links which appear to go to PayPal really go to a newly registered site called qunxy.com. Don't go there! PayPal Mobile has not yet been officially rolled out, but it is available, right now! Here are the details! Is it a scam? Is it spam? Is it phishing? Is it legal? Someone calling themselves Garren Fitzenreiter, using the email address admin@keithware.com, is sending people Paypal invoices out of the blue, with the subject "help me pay for my inspection sticker ticket and ill love you forever. thanks" There is a new PayPal phishing campaign going on. It warns you about a "New email address added to your PayPal account!" Whether it's the world's largest auction house, Paypal, or the world's most believed and mourned pontiff, Pope John Paul II, spammers and scammers are not above invoking their name in an effort to relieve you of your money.
