PayPal’s board refused a 53-billion-USD bid from Stripe-Advent after Block reportedly initiated talks. The board expressed undervaluation concerns. CEO Dan Schulman now faces pressure to improve growth or consider a sale. Schulman previously aimed to revive the company’s standing. PayPal would not comment on the rejected bid. Separately in Berea, a resident lost almost 172-thousand-USD after fraudsters posed as PayPal support staff over fake gold bar deals. The man met strangers claiming to recover lost funds but transferred all his cash to transfers. He reported the loss to police recently.
