I bought and paid for something on Kijiji from a seller about 2 hours away from me. I paid via Paypal. If anything goes wrong, am I protected by Paypal and can I file a claim?

I was raised Catholic and no offense but it would’ve been a cold day in you know where before our priest would tell us to sent money to Israel. However, I was watching a program where a ton of Christian churches were sending money to Israel and then I saw this program called the 700 Club and they were saying the same thing. Does anyone know why?

I am only interested in free systems like PayPal and Interac, not any of the various fee based systems, e.g., Western Union.

Granted, said family members do not live with me. If such money couldn’t be claimed as a deduction for supporting family, can it be claimed as a deduction for charity?

I’ve been sending around $1000 every month to my home country (Venezuela) to help support my mom and sister.

Can I claim them as dependents on my tax return, even though they’re not citizens, or residents.

I’m a legal resident.

I like giving away my money - is there a website out there where i can send my money to nice looking girls - just as like a tip. Kind of like tipping a waitress?

Thanks

I am a merchant account user. I sold something into the thousands of dollars using my account. The merchant account provider told me i had to do a refund to the buyer b/c I didnt have the right to sell that product. The money had already been processed and sent to my account. I say cant you all send it back. They say no I have to do it once it reaches my bank account. The NEXT day i call them back asking and they say no the money is not coming to my account. But i have to refund it manually. I think they are lying and want to keep the money b/c i called the same company and they say once a payment is going to my account it cant be stopped unless i do a refund.
