The actual process is not that hard, just time consuming.

A message from PayPal, my account has been been limited.
Which is true; they wanted more personal details out of me that I refused to give - it’s an ancient account from when signing up was much easier, and hasn’t been used for probably two years. I figured it was easier to wait for them to close my account than actually take steps to close it myself. But it’s funny they’ve resorted to the language and threats of the scammers who beset their platform for so many years. |

It was real, I recently logged in directly off my browser - not using any links - and there were the same messages waiting.
Have been “done” with them for years, but waited for them to shut me down rather than DIY. Probably if I’d asked to close the account they’d have refused to act unless I provided the information they weren’t getting anyway. |

I was getting bombarded too. Went into my actual account, not any links, and fixed it, just wanted to confirm DOB from memory.

Trouble with these phishing scams is that they keep asking “innocent”questions over a period of time until they get all your info,then the trouble starts

I find it easier and faster to get refunds than through banks, it's the only reason I use them.

Constable Rolfe of NT Police found not guilty on all charges of a hastily put together murder charge with too much political interference to placate certain members of the community.

I'm all for scrutiny of the police but this was just a waste of money and time. I'd like to say how the **** this went to trial but we all know why.

Makes me feel good to have never used those shopper docket discounts. Don't shop at the freshly defrosted people or the down, down people. Both like to rip the consumers and farmer off.

Finally got my ranger all packed and ready for my holiday in Tassie, high fuel costs will not stop me as I have been itching for this holiday in the last 13 months.

got your passport ready and changed your money over yet?
when daughter no.2 was 16 years ago she was tripping off to see old school friends in Tassie. I asked her the same Q at airport just before boarding, just about had a panic attack.

Got room for a motor? There’s a bloke wanting to get one from (I think) Melbourne to northern Tas quite smartly.

It’ll probably go Tasfreight on a skid, but sending parts with a car enthusiast is usually a safer bet against damage or mishandling.

In all transparency... i have helped a few people both financially/ emotionally and physically (mud army Murwillumbah/Lismore) in the last week that i took off work ( so i lost $5K earnings also, ahh well )
The price of fuel is bloody ridiculous, but i still have a vehicle to drive and a home to park it under... Life is always humbling, i like to brag about things i have but i mean who doesn't?? I'm doing V8 happy laps this weekend, maybe that will make me feel good as well and i can post some pic's up ? Peace |
