This wasn't paypal's fault. I mean entirely. The problem was with goDaddy. The last 4 digits of credit cards show's up everywhere. Check your receipts. Related question in stackexchange: http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/37758/safety-of-...

GoDaddy should not use the 4 last digits as a way to confirm identity, exactly for the reason I mentioned above

PayPal gives out info to someone completely unverified and it is not their fault?

It would be one thing if this was a spouse or someone intercepting their physical mail. It's not. It's someone out of the blue who called PayPal to get the last four of a complete stranger.

GoDaddy's verification is bad too but at least they had some kind of attempt.

Why oh why do people support GoDaddy?

I find their TV Commercials the worst and makes us as a community go back to the 1950s stereo types????

Love it when I help churches with their websites and it has a GoDaddy account :(
