Hackers call for PayPal boycott

On continuous refusal of PayPal to handle donations to Wikileaks, two high profile hacker groups have called on their followers to boycott PayPal

Anonymous and Lulz Security issued asking supporters to withdraw funds and close their accounts.

Wikileaks assets froze by PayPal after it released stolen US diplomatic cables.

The company refused to comment on the boycott because of ongoing legal action over attempts to hack its website.

Launching the campaign, LulzSec and Anonymous wrote in an online posting: "PayPal continues to withhold funds from WikiLeaks.

"By simply getting stand for ourselves and uniting the people, PayPal still sees it best time to wash its hands of any blame, and instead encourages and assists law enforcement to hunt down participants in the AntiSec movement.
