Blister my brain. Group: Members Posts: 5526 Member No.: 129 Joined: 11-November 03 Status: (0d)	So I order something from this one guy and he sends me a PayPal link. So I click it and it shows up in German or some other language. So it tells me to enter my password, (or "paswort") but not my e-mail address. So I enter my password and it comes out as incorrect. So what do I do to to log-in to my account, or better yet make everything show up in English? --------------------

What needs to happen is he needs to provide you something more concrete than just a random PayPal link to dump money into; unless you're doing this through Amazon you should realize that paying 3rd parties can be very risky online. At Amazon they will see the package before you, confirming whether or not you were cheated before you even see the product and dealing with such activity accordingly. Sadly, the good deals "some guy" may be offering are not worth much if he can only provide you with shady URLs. --------------------

They aren't exactly good deals, but thanks for your help.
