My Ocean city Condo


">Link

I have been quite busy renting out the condo. three weeks in June are already rented and the first week of July as well. I have been noticing that most (well all) of the people rather pay by check or Money Order instead of using Paypal. I can't say I blame them, with all the bad stuff that have been going around. I get so many e-mails from people trying to scam me that I was compelled to write back to the last one telling them to get another one scam since that one is getting old. I'm sure everybody is, by now, aware of almost all of them. So, I repeat, I don't blame the renter for not wanting to give out their Credit Card numbers over the Internet. I am the same way. However, I chose to try Paypal because of an incident that happened with my husbands credit card. We ordered a Birth Certificate via Internet from New York, boat parts, background search and others. One day after we placed an order, we got a call from Paypal verifying a charge that was being placed on our credit card. It wasn't us. Somehow Paypal was able to detect the fraud! I trust then a little more than I could any other because I know they try to protect us. Of course, we know they schemers are always re-inventing themselves, and maybe even get past Paypal. As we all know, reviewing our monthly statements carefully is a good prevention.

Happy Boating.
