AN UNHAPPY CUSTOMER hacked the PayPal UK twitter account to let the world know how much they thought the company “sucked”.
The Guardian reports that the Twitter account was hacked yesterday, with the tweets “Shop safely without paypal. paypalsucks.com” and “All your paypal accounts are now frozen while we clean up this mess” appearing.
The site Paypalsucks.com describes itself as an “anti paypal site exposing the nightmare of doing business ‘the paypal way’”.
The anonymous person who makes the site describes the customer service as “horrible”.
This is the second high-profile Twitter account hack in a week – just a few days ago, Fox News’s official Twitter account was hacked.
The hackers tweeted the fabricated ‘news’ that President Barack Obama had been assassinated.

Six months!
@Jimmy Pea: A sick joke .
@Jimmy Pea: judge too lenient. 6 month feck joke cos free in 3 months time
@Jimmy Pea: out in 3? If he does engage with the probation service and gets off the drugs it would be great. We can live in hope. The poor grandfather certainly is probably hoping that.
@Jakie McLean:
Drug use is not an excuse. People make their own choices to use drugs, and if it destroys their life and causes them to harm people, that’s on them.
6 months is a joke.
Lowest of the low types combined with a totally ineffective “justice” system will see repeat offences from this criminal.
That’s low, six years he should have got
“Deterrence message “ FFS
Out in a month
Use of a false instrument? He needs to experience the wrong end of one of those.
Another ‘poor addict’ with very little thought for the people at loss.
What deterrent message? Suspend two years !
So often people assume that a family member would never steal from one’s own family. In cases of addiction and repeat offending there are no promises. We need to keep an eye on our seniors for their protection.
How could you do that on your own grandad, lowest of the low.
have your say
