Question, I caught my son gambling and buying tips from WinnersAndWhiners.com, how is this possible when it's direct violation of PP TOS? How do I help other parents and stop this nonsense? It states on PP TOS verry clearly, "Gambling services, such as handicapping, or providing gambling tips or instructions"
The link in violation: [removed]

If your son is under 18 then he shouldn't be using a paypal account.
As for the sites used, paypal cannot vet every single site in over 200 countries but if they find out he has been using a paypal account against their terms and conditions then that account would be banned.

My son is a 21 year old college student.
My point, PayPal states in the TOS it does NOT allow gambling / sport tips yet it's pretty clear this company is using paypal to process payments for the winners and whiners site is clearly violating their terms.
PayPal needs to enforce their terms.

Maybe your son should take responsibility of his own actions and not use his paypal account against paypals rules and acceptable use programme?
