As PayPal has been unhelpful with a seller I've been doing some checking. It seems the place I bought from (azcozy.com) which name doesn't show up unless you do some digging must be fraudulent. Its listed US address is an empty lot, it pops up in the PayPal forums as a fraudulent site, they don't respond, etc. My question? Does PayPal do any of the consumer protection they talk about (or used to, I've not seen ads in some time)? Or are they simply here to rake in transaction fees? You would think that a website that's been reported to them (and it seems hard to report problems to them so someone put effort into that report) several times might raise a red flag or two. 2nd question? Is there any real benefit to PayPal?
