I won a case against Paypal in a US Court of Law and now I have to collect. They tell me I'll have to find out who Paypal Banks with so that I can garnish the money. Does anyone know who Paypal banks with? Where do they hide our money at?

You won a case in a US Court, but you have to collect the funds? Do you seriously expect people to believe that?
You might check with Barclays Bank, they are managing the PayPal money market funds. Just walk up to the bank and tell them what you are owed. You might think banks don't have a sense of humor, but you'd be wrong, just watch how hard they laugh at you.

UARU, I have no idea about the legitimacy of this particular case, but it is true that if you win a case in Small Claims Court, YOU are responsible for locating the assets to be used to pay the debt, unless the judgment debtor voluntarily pays. I've had to do this myself a couple of times (and did end up collecting).
You can schedule what is called a judgment debtor's exam (in CA) and force the PayPal representative to reveal bank accounts and numbers, real estate owned, and other assets.

it sounds like paypal business model has major flaws,the original intention of helping ebay sellers to accept credit card charges and facilitate sales and earn a fee for itself ,not realising without face to face identification verification,a person can have many ids (they can do this too on land),these people can defraud buyer or seller,defraud credit card co,set up bogus paypal sites to pry id and password from account holders etc .
i think in the coming years we will see more stringent requirements for setting up websites or webpages,selling on public venues and proving who you say you are,all these will raise the stakes of doing business in cyberspace squeezing out the marginal players who do not have bank account,credit card id,driver license,unwilling to provide passport,ss number.
to have a shop in prominent sites,you need DBA,business certificate,commercial checking ,all these to provide protection for the consumers.
more and more of the business fundamentals which always apply to brick and mortar stores will be in cyberspace

Really...This is no joke. They froze about $1,500 dollars for no reason at all. They wanted to settle out of court about a week before the case was to appear in court. I said "NO" . This is really important because when a vender sues them in small claims court he'll need to figure out how to garnish the money to receive payment. Everyone should have access to this information. Thanks everyone for your help. Joe

Hi thesatelliteshop,
I honestly would not know the answer to the question. I would have to refer you to the legal department, as they would involved in any issues regarding claims against the company.
Hi clubman,
I did advise that your friend is more than welcome to contact me. There is a specific process that has to be followed if a user claims unauthorized account access. I have not seen an email from this particular party since I made the advisement.

paypaldamon,
how do you do it? i don't care how much someone pays me, i would not take this job. and tell me the truth, you can't really be on all the other boards either. are you?
are you really happy with this job?
forget about all the legality issues and being PC as an employee of paypal. i'm asking you a personal question.

I would be very interested to learn details on the case you won against PayPal. I think such information is important for other people who are prepared to fight for their money in court.
If you, or anybody else who has experience with filing cases against PayPal, can forward information, I will include it on my new www.AboutPayPal.org website.

Hi Daniel:
I just sent you an email but I'll post and bring everyone up to date.
After you sue and if you win a judgement then you have to send Paypal or whatever company owes you a judgement a "Demand Letter" . This basically tells the "Judgement Debtor - Paypal in this case" that they need to pay up or be in noncompliance w the law and that you have made the first attempt to collect. If they do not freely pay then you have to have the courts garnish the money from their accounts or if they have no money then you can have a court appointed representative go into there facilities and garnish computers or what ever material property is needed to satisfy the judgment. Personally I'd like to have the sheriff garnish computers rather than money because I'd get the computers for 5 to 10 cents on a dollar. Either way is fine though. I just need my money back.
