>no two step authentication
Srsly?

paypal is trash, waiting for them to finish getting sued so I can reclaim the $2.6k they jewed me out on
>>

What are the steps? Haven't used my account in a long time
>>
>>53699390
What's a better alternative?
>>
Then why does PayPal send me a verification code via SMS whenever I log in?

PayPal has had 2FA for a while now, it's somewhere in the account settings page.

I know it's nothing compared to your 2600, but they are holding my 20 fucking dollars claiming there was suspicious activity on my account, and refuse to give it back unless I verify my identity, which I tried and they still did nothing. Can't believe they're still operating, that entire company is a fucking scam. There goes my fucking Steam game money.

Even Steam has a better security than this shit

It does.
I get a SMS to sign into my account.

>>53699376
They have two step authentication, it's just worded weirdly in the options
>>
>>53699376
It has 2FA it just isn't the industry standard TOTP kind that most of the tech sector uses like Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Facebook, etc all use.

Google Voice can give you a free phone number I think. So you really don't have to own one.

underrated post

Are you stupid? PayPal has had two step authentication for a long while.
>>
>>53701662
You can't really say that without knowing both their infrastructures. Not that easily, 2FA support or not isn't saying enough. Moreover, http://store.steampowered.com/news/19852/
