Paypal is pretty evil, but I can't think of a single successful company, ever, who started spamming their own customer's mobiles



Yeah, my sense the user backlash from unsolicited mobile ad spam would even hurt a giant with such heavy engrained web commerce inertia as PayPal.


Verizon does it to me. They're always trying to get me to take in other deals from 3rd parties or themselves.


Credit card companies do this, which is why I no longer have a Discover Card.


Discover started sending unsolicited marketing messages to your mobile phone!?
