It was easier for me as well, at least until somehow someone got my credit
card number and started charging it up. I don't know how they did it but it
had to be from paypal because that is all I used that card for. Paypal was no
help, never answered the email I sent to their Security Dept <thanks a lot!!!>
. Luckily, my credit card company was great to deal with on this.
