From all appearances, the ADL and the SPLC are using Paypal to financially punish every person that is on their hit list. I closed my Paypal account months ago. That's why I am not a IPCT+ member anymore. Speaking of, have they come up with a new payment processor yet?

If for whatever reason you’re still using PayPal and haven’t closed your account, I feel sorry for you

What the Hell Happened to PayPal?

"If you have funds in your PayPal balance, we’ll hold it for up to 180 days. After that period, we’ll email you with information on how to access your funds.”


So it sure sounds like they are going to invest the money ( 3 or 6 month CD , or something else) with your locked account and then return your money after 180 days. They get to keep the extra money they made from YOUR funds. Do this over a few thousand locked accounts and it adds up quickly.

Not sure but until that time comes, Mike accepted a personal check from me for $60 last week ($5 x 12 = $60) for a year, then he restored my IPCT+ status. I mailed it to him.
I had closed my PayPal account in October.

PM him and ask if you can do the same.

What could possibly go wrong????? I’d laugh if they actively start doing this and the investments go south.

FTX anyone?
Bernie Madoff?
