How do you know that didn't happen?
I don't, just like you don't know that it did happen. I said as much in my comment.
The only thing I know is that the person claiming responsibility didn't make any claim of trying to handle it reasonably first, but did brag about it in the "haha I showed those fuckers, PWNED" way I already mentioned. There's a distinct tone of "this person is using Paypal policies for a personal vendetta".

> I said as much in my comment.
I find it hard to take you at your word, your entire comment rests on the premise that someone wasn't just talking shit.
Including a 'seems' disclaimer doesn't negate everything else.
