Because PayPal (along with Ebay) have facilitated so many home based buiness enterprises, issues of Pay Pal security are very important in the work at home business field. 
Most PayPal “phishing” ploys are easy to spot.
“Your account has been limited” - yeah, like you thought I had $10 million there?

I don’t know if this will work long term but who knows. It’s one of those “FYI” posts of things I found interesting and they make my mind try to unravel their riddle.

Here’s [...]

If you’re familiar with the wonderful marketing training by people like Jay Abraham, Dan Kennedy, etc. please realize that some concepts that work in the “real world” don’t compute as easily online.
It’s not that the concepts are wrong… they’re not.
