Chips: 111 | | | Paypal question It seem that a few members want someone to transfer to online sites and pay by paypal. I want to know how secure receiving payment via paypal if I transfer $ to them on poker site? |

I'd wait to get the Paypal IN and confirmed before you trf the P*s.
That being said, I'm in the market for some P* $$$.
Let me know if you want to take a spin. |

Double ditto, I've gotten a notice from their audit department about this. They never shut my account down but I was warned.
As to your original question, I've done it for several folks without any issues. Depending on the person, I'll may require the paypal trans to go through first. |

I sort of get a kick out of all the exchanges. A good example of how overzealous regulation just ends up creating a black market.
