Isn't the risk of buying bitcoins with paypal the same risk as buying anything else with paypal? What is considered to be the safest way to do this other than going to someone in person and making sure you get the cash in hand?
How do you know they wont beat you up and rob you in person?
This is one of the reasons Bitcoin kept that underworld stigma for so long...
There has to be an easier way. Why not use a 900 hotline or Skype Prime? Tell me why not?
