PayPal users beware, PayPal is not secure.
My PayPal account has been hacked (at Paypal) and over $3000 of transactions processed in 24 hours. All the transactions were in Europe, mostly in Euros, even for a takeaway. PayPal have declined my claim that they were fraudulent by saying that they fitted in with my transaction history ??? I average 2 transactions a month.


Check on google "PayPal account hijacking"and see how common this is.
Would advise anyone with a PayPal account to close it

Better Later Life takes a fresh look at what is required to ensure New Zealand is a great place to age and achieve the vision of making sure older people lead valued, connecting and fulfilling lives.

The strategy's key areas for action will be used to guide the priorities of what needs to happen in our action plan.
