    this, but I think my bank had to aware me of a potential risk on my account
    , dunno, but anyway regarding all complaints, its something big as
    cardsystem like you suggest , nor as big as amazon or paypal, all complaints
    are from this month, DIGITAL AGE will be found, I hope , bastards :>

    I've spent less than 5 minutes looking through that thread and already have
    found a number of posts stating their card was not affiliated with PayPal.
    So I have to wonder how you jumped so quickly to that conclusion.

    Remember CardSystems - 200,000 credit card accounts were compromised and 40
    million accounts exposed just months ago. I think I would put my bet on
    something more obvious, like that.

    Research is about more than collecting links that backup your viewpoint.

    under cc fraud

    I will explain my small story to show you that using paypal to buy on the
    web is risked.
    I have buy only 2 things this month, 1 game at steampowered.com and 1GB DDR2
    at a respectable ebay store. That was the first time I were using paypal to
    pay things on the net and so on it will be the last time..

    Today I notice at my bank account a fraudulent debit of 24.99$ coming from a
    "DIGITAL AGE 888", and looking on the web, happy to see that there is
    hundred maybe thausends of ppl in my case , fraudulent charge of 24.99$ from
    a "digital age".

    look there:

    hilite=digital+age

    http://www.robertkbrown.com/2005/10/04/digital_age_fraud.html

    after reading all this and comparing with my case, sure it comes from paypal
    and the stored cc card.

    So if you are under the fraud also like me, fill a complaint to your bank
    and there http://www.ifccfbi.gov/index.asp

    This was a first and last use of paypal for me, unbelievable ...
