My husband was in the middle of placing an order and paying with his paypal acct. When he gets a response from PayPal telling him he has been chosen to a RANDOM SECURITY CHECK , that he needs to validate his credit card, call them from a home land line, and send in a copy of his driver's license. WTF??????? He will be allowed to put money into his paypay acct to pay for purchases but he is not allowed to use credit cards until every thing is verified???? Again, WTF??? Is this for real? Looking for another company to make purchases with.

Something similar just happened to me. If there were another option, I would drop Paypal in a heartbeat. I was asked to "get verified" as I tried to add a credit card to my account. Paypal is inconsiderate.
