A friend had his email hacked and stolen and it was tied to his PayPal which was linked to his checking account . Had $7000 stolen and never got it back.

You need to have a Gmail account and link your "other" email to it so that IF one gets hacked you have a way of recovering it.

I don't link any back account to PayPal.

No, never did.... But he was using his PayPal with his business and the crooks placed two small charges that he didn't notice the month before so when they put in large charges ( the month later) that added up to $7,000 the bank let them go through.....

Who cares.... it is a great pooch, and we all should have trained ours to wear shades when they were young and willing to learn.
Now my 130 pound American bulldog just sits and makes his own rules....
Glad you still treasure that photo, it was a classic, I must admit...

fwiw... the above is inaccurate. My communications included the following:

"I was giving you a little time to get back to me from the other email address. Unfortunately, if I don't respond quickly I get buried in email. Are you able to contact me through the email account associated with the original bn user account? That would be greatly appreciated. Please advise."

For security reasons, it's best to confirm the person contacting me is who they say they are. Easiest way to do so is email confirmation. Otherwise it takes more work/discovery.

I've also been challenged on time tbh... which hasn't helped things.
