  1. I need to prevent paypal purchases


    hi all

    I decided to sign up for one month gold for my boy to play minecraft online. I used my paypal account to pay for it.

    To my horror I discoverd paypal purchases are not password protected.

    Now I'm afraid if I leave him unsupervised he might purchase games etc.

    I've cancelled the gold auto renewal subscription, and I can't delete my paypal details.

    Help!

    How can I stop him from making any purchases?

    :)

  2. Paypal Payment Question.

    So for the new paypal method of payment will I have to log in to my paypal every time I make a purchase. I would rather use this as I have younger bothers that use my account to play online and I would like to prevent any way they could make purchases without
    me knowing.

    Accused of theft and fraud

    if you think your account has been compromised you need to contact support not just paypal if you did and the game purchases were made by a family member and then you disputed it thru paypal that is marketplace theft

    Also should be noted marketplace theft doesn't prevent multiplayer access only purchasea until your suspensjon is over

    Thanks again for the reply.

    The link takes me to the page 'Privacy and online safety'.

    There are three options:

    1/ privacy

    2/ xbox one online safety

    3/ xbox 360 online safety

    The option to not allow purchases only appears under xbox one online safety option.
