You know ~ I really want to do this ..... but, in order to write and get paid you have to sign up for PayPal ~ and then they want your SS number. I am kinda iffy about that. What say you? |

Just don't do it!! It's not fun - at all - having your identity stolen/used by others. |

I also know others with PayPal accounts and they have never had problems either. |

I've had Paypal since 2000 or 2001, never had problems. Only thing I had to watch out for is imposter emails claiming to be from Paypal. BUT, i always forwarded the emails to paypal. they replied right away, telling me the emails are NOT from paypal or they are. Only one out of many emails was from them. That is the only thing I watch out for. But then again I guess we have to watch out for all emails we get. |

So in order to sign up for your PayPal accounts, did YOU have to give them your SS number? My husband is saying I can't do it if they ask for that information. Dang. |

I dont think I gave them my SS number.  Best thing to do is visit their website, I think. Got the following from Paypal's site. More info. at site.  EDIT: They always "tell" us to use http://www.paypal.com instead of using all other links people give you ...for your protection. https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/gen /ua/policy_privacy-outside#section-one "How we collect information about you" When you visit the PayPal website, we collect your IP address and standard web log information, such as your browser type and the pages you accessed on our website. If you open an account, we collect the following types of information from you: Contact information - your name, address, phone, email, Skype ID and other similar information. Financial information - the bank account numbers and credit card numbers that you link to your PayPal account. Before permitting you to use our Service, we may require you to provide additional information we can use to verify your identity or address or manage risk, such as your date of birth, social security number or other information. We may also obtain information about you from third parties such as credit bureaus and identity verification services. When you are using our Service, we collect information about your account transactions and we may collect information about your computer or other access device for fraud prevention purposes. Finally, we may collect additional information from or about you in other ways not specifically described here. For example, we may collect information related to your contact with our customer support team or store results when you respond to a survey. |
