"Will PayPal be next..."

A business associate of mine had a checking account wiped out, and, according to him, the earliest sign of what was to come was a fraudulent account set up on PayPal, which was used to verify funds. Not to steal the money in the account, mind you. There were checks cashed all over the country, Delaware, Ohio, California. Organized ring.

PayPal uses the Master Card logo. I would assume the breach encompasses brokers of their brand.
