I want to make a complain about paypal services. On 03/17/2015 woman with the name Jane made I payment to my account for a macbook that I sold to her for $430. Day after I received an e-mail from paypal that they made a mistake and charged Jane’s account extra $200.
Paypal told me that I will have to pay this 200$ from my pocket and gotta send them via western union to Nigeria. I didn’t have a 200$ so we made an agreement and I sent the half/100$/.
On 4/1/2015 I received another e-mail from paypal that my account will be credited within 24 hours. I have waited and waited. The next day paypal wrote to me that the buyer Jane sent me money on self behaved action without letting me know or asking for my permission another 250$ for custom Coventry charges in Nigeria. I received e-mail from paypal that now I have to send this another 200$ via western union in Nigeria to different person with different address.
Paypal made a hold to this money money too. I explained to them that I don’t have this amount and that this is the buyers duty, not my.That at least they have to credit this 250$ to my account for I can send this money via western union. Nothing of this happened. Paypal won’t credit my account and they still demand from me to send more and more money to Nigeria for something that I sold/not bough/. That is violation of my human rights and I am extremely disappointed of paypal’s services ..Now because of them I can’t pay my rent and soon will not have money for food. Please help me get my account credited because I don’t know what to do next…

Buddy of mine hit it off with this girl and after a few days, she invited him over to a house party. "Sure" he says, what could go wrong? He shows up and is introduced to a few of her friends, all guys. As the night carries on, more and more guys show up and very few girls are actually at the party. After they start talking about how they all know this girl they find out that she invited them all from Tinder. Every guy was there not to hook up, but to populate this chick's birthday party.
From Redditor /u/AJTTOTD:
Not really a horror story, but the best I have.
I was working the midnight release of Destiny 1 and mostly walking around and chatting. It was a fun night! Of course I didn’t have any hours for a few days after that, but when I came back in, the SGA warned me that a guy had been coming in and asking about me.
(He apparently even asked my female assistant manager where the female worker was. She said “Me?” and he said “No, the cute one” then tried to get her number!)
Lo and behold he called that night! In the middle of trying to check out a line of people this man, who I talked to for maybe five minutes, called to talk and ask me out.
I’ve never hung up on someone so fast before.

It started as a game, a joke, but I’m not laughing anymore. It’s become my dark reality. It spiraled out of my control quickly and I’m still not totally sure what I got myself into. I know my day is coming, just not as soon as the other 12. Yes, there was 13 of us. Now there is 2. I and Jack, my best friend since day one, but jack has become distant. I know it’s too late to save him. The only thing I can do is save myself, although that might be impossible too.
The first we heard of the game was from a few of the popular kids at my school, gossiping about this new crazy challenge on the deep web, of course they didn’t actually know the extent, they heard about it from one of their cousins. My friends and I decided to look into it being the curious guys we are. My more tech smart friend Taylor had been on the deep web before, he knew his way around everything. It took a while but he finally found the game. I can’t tell you what it’s called for legal reasons but I can tell you what it entitles.
The first thing they make you do in the game is take an oath. You must finish the game properly or face consequences, the oath was pretty innocent for the most part. But to prove our loyalty we all had to cut our hands and send them a picture. We faked it and sent in a picture, but they can tell, they can always tell when you’re lying. We had to do it for real.
Every day it was a new challenge, each getting scarier and scarier. Each task makes you fall into a deep depression, close enough to want to kill yourself. But you can’t yet. They have a plan for all of us- had a plan. The other 11 didn’t follow the rules, just jack and I. the challenges present themselves over the course of 30 days. I’m on day 20. Below is a list of things they’ve made me do so far.
- Wake up every two hours to watch a series of videos the conductors sent.
- Cut words into my arm.
- Make myself ill.
- Skip school for a week.
- Sneak out at midnight to go to a rave.
- Stay up continuously for 3 days watching horror movies.
- Take special pills.
- Stand on the side of a tall building.
- Nearly drown myself.
- Go mute.
- Black out all light from my room and stay in it for 24 hours.
- Meet a conductor in the woods for a ritual.
- Pour candle wax on myself and burn myself
- Starve myself until day 17
- Choke myself until I pass out
- Drink until I’m numb.
- Eat only the food they give me
- Stab myself in the leg
- Listen to the music they send Today is 20 but I haven’t gotten anything yet, I will update you guys soon.

WallCandy, a Canadian artist and cancer survivor, has been on Etsy since 2007. Soon however WallCandy might no longer exist as WallCandy on Etsy.
A new Esty seller, Wall Candy Arts, has apparently complained to Etsy. Wall Candy Arts filed a trademark in 2002, in the US, for something very specific: "decorative plastic wall coverings and wall boarders that adhere to a painted wall surface and are easily removed and repositioned."
Etsy has given the original, Canadian WallCandy one week (ONE week) to notify customers and choose a new name. Rather than do something logical like, oh say taking 5 minutes on Google to learn that Wall Candy Art and WallCandy sell non-competing products and are based in two different countries, Etsy chooses to be boneheaded fucktards as usual.
Etsy - this is bullshit. You're an International site, right?? As you say "the Etsy community represents more than 150 countries worldwide" so ACT like it. Just because a company holds a copyright in the US, does not mean that they have a lock on a seller's shop name based out of another country.

It all started when Jane stumbled upon a new cryptocurrency that promised high returns with minimal investment. It seemed too good to be true, but Jane was intrigued and decided to give it a shot. She deposited a small amount of money into the platform and waited for the profits to roll in.
Days turned into weeks, and the profits never came. Jane tried to reach out to the customer support team but was met with silence. The website, which once looked professional and trustworthy, was now filled with broken links and error messages. Jane soon realized she had fallen victim to a crypto scam.
Desperate to retrieve her lost funds, Jane began to delve deeper into the platform and its history. She found that many others had also been scammed, and their attempts to get their money back had been met with resistance. Some even reported receiving strange and threatening messages from the creators of the platform.
Jane's obsession with the scam and her attempts to retrieve her funds took a dark turn as she found herself being stalked by mysterious figures and receiving cryptic messages on her computer. She couldn't shake the feeling that she was being watched and followed wherever she went.
One night, Jane woke up to the sound of her computer beeping. She opened her eyes to find a message on her screen that read, "Your efforts to retrieve your funds will lead to your demise. The curse of the cryptocurrency will consume you." Jane tried to scream, but her voice was silenced by an unseen force.
The next morning, Jane was found dead in her home, surrounded by her computer and evidence of her attempts to retrieve her lost funds. The cause of death was never determined, but some say she was consumed by the curse of the cryptocurrency scam that promised her high returns.
This story serves as a cautionary tale to all those who are tempted by the promises of quick and easy profits in the world of cryptocurrency. Always be cautious and do your research before investing in any platform, or risk falling victim to the curse of the cryptocurrency scam.
