Paypal website Gets Hijacked?

Posted by the dood on Friday, September 11th, 2009

This morning I went to access my paypal, and noticed when I visited paypal.com, I got a “page could not be found” error. That’s a bit weird… a big huge site like Paypal, which carries tons of secure data and has a lot of people that need to use it ASAP, is rarely down. So then I decided to type in www.paypal.com… adding the www in front of the address… and to my surprise, a COMPLETELY different site came up!! MyStoreMaps.com! Did MyStoreMaps.com just hijack Paypal’s site? Quite possibly. This is not only disturbing, but inconvenient as I had to make a payment for something. I wonder how they will explain this one.

Maybe like other bullshits that the company pulls like the Mysterious Skype Withdrawals, Paypal will just brush all this under the rug, and hope no one notices. It surely seems to be their method of operation. Paypal is and will always have that tarnished reputation of hiding things and being dishonsest with their users. The only reason why everyone uses them is because of convenience and because of ebay. Once GoogleBay comes out, they will have to watch out.
