Well, for what it's worth, I came home today after being in the hospital for 4 days and found Paypal had closed down my account because of a suspicious transaction for $250.<br><br>It was marked Voipjet. So, it's certainly not just Kim that has had this happen. Whether or not it's really Voipjet or someone posing as Voipjet remains to be seen.
<br><br>I'm not posting this to corroborate Kim's experience. Rather, I want people knowing there may be an issue with scammers posing as ITSPs.<br><br>Best to all<br><br>Tom<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">

<br>Also note that you can login to paypal and cancel a preapproved vendor<br>arrangement anytime before they take more money. It's not like giving<br>someone a credit card and then they "accidentally" charge you again
