I haven't used my Paypal account in 5+ years. It looks like somebody from China hacked my account in 2010. That got my account flagged and the person in China started a limitation review. To finish the limitation review and get my account back, I have to provide information about a bank account I no longer have. I haven't had too much luck getting Paypal to help me so far.
So... what's the best alternative? I looked at Dwolla, but that requires the sender to have a Dwolla account. I looked at Amazon's web payment solution but it said that the feature was disabled for my account (still waiting to hear back from Amazon customer service about that).
I created a second paypal account for sending money by adding a "+1"to my email (myemail+1@site.com), but some people don't seem comfortable sending money to that address.
