Good POINT! The traders of crypto here are assuming that all who use paypal to buy crypto are scammers. So what's the point of this warning thingy? ridiculous isn't it?
I frequently use PayPal to either buy or sell bitcoin--and I'm not a scammer.  Never charged back, never will unless there's some sort of scam against me.  There are some members here who can indeed be trusted doing PayPal deals, but the number of newbie accounts and assorted higher-ranked scammers greatly outnumber those, and it's unfortunate.

The truth is that people here really need to watch out when dealing with PayPal.  I don't trust PayPal NOT to reverse a F&F transaction, and it's been ingrained in my head that it doesn't matter if the Tx is F&F--everything can be reversed within 6 months.  Whether that is completely true, I don't know, but I treat PP deals as if it were.
