I would look for more of the same to happen. You can bet that anyone taking in donations is going to be scrutinized beyond belief when The Red Cross and others are taking on the challenge.

I see that he caught a lot of flack on his website for doing this, ao they may be the people complaining to Paypal.

That's a damn shame but as long as PayPal gets their 2.35 % cut of the donations I don't think they're too worried about the negative publicity.

That is the single wrongest thing Ive ever seen pay pal do, stealing donation money. They should all be prosecuted and put away

they didnt "steal" it they are just holding on to it for safe keeping...and so they can draw interest off of it...
Every normal man must be tempted at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
I often wonder if the voices in my head ever get frustrated because I'm just too damn lazy to climb that clock tower.

PayPal is one of the worst "legitimate" organizations on the internet.
They should be BANNED.
They should be 'taken out'...however you want to take that.
