Someone hacked into super-famous blogger Chris Pirillo’s PayPal account and bought $450 worth of iTunes cards. On his birthday, no less. After a review Paypal declared to him,”We have completed our investigation of your claim and have determined that this is not an instance of unauthorized account activity.”

So typical of Paypal’s fascist approach to customer service. I’ve emailed Chris our post “All The Secret Paypal/Ebay Email Addresses And Phone Numbers You Could Ever Want,” containing over 450 pieces of Paypal contact information, in the hopes that it helps him out.
