Re: Vpn users beware!!!!
This was a good thread for me anyway. I have been using a few mifi hotspots I get different ip addresses and keep log of them to not overlap on different accounts.
However, a few paypal accounts have been giving me security issues upon logging in or trying to withdraw/send/spend money from the account. It will ask to confirm my phone with either a text or phone call but there is no number to click on for them to call so I click add number and it tells me its not my number. What is even weirder is that I of course have phone numbers (active ones) attached to them so when they ask to text me or call me it should have the number on file but nope not there.
Its been odd, I emailed paypal a few times from different accounts and they told me its a new security feature and to try to log in from the same computer and same ip address and to refresh my cookies. I got the basic same response about 4xs.
So now I am definitely thinking about switching to VPN with same ip address every time for each account instead of the mifis. Just gets expensive that way if you have 50 stealth and its $3 per Static IP it would be way more expensive then my $40 bucks a month mifi.
