The pay for this bug was fine. Same bug I reported on a FB acquisition and they paid me $500.

Bro, I am able to bypass Paypal's login security feature. Basically, I had this problem: https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/y...read-thought-i-would-have-a-good-day.1129605/ and been doing some crazy shit and I managed to login and even send my money (The account was not on-hold tho, I was just not able to login cause I am on a different IP).Not bad for an hour of work :

Are you asking me if this is a valid bug? You can always try submitting bugs to companies, submission is free. Paypal has a program on hackerone.

That is great! Do they require any form of verification when joining?
Yes actually, I was asking if this is a valid bug.

That is because I photoshopped the pic that I uploaded here.
Real reason is that it is not disclosed yet.- Nov 16, 2011

Interesting! Never heard of such...what's the simplest way to begin? Is there any tool or trick that makes this work better or its being done manually? Just point me to somewhere I can lay my feet from...maybe a little snippet about how you got started.(A link or course) Thanks in advance

Check the links I shared on 1st page of this thread. There are tools like burp suite which you will have to learn to use. Not very hard.

People who find bugs are very talented and have a very inquisitive mind.
To do this sort of job you need a good understanding of the language you're hunting in, and be able to spot syntax errors, memory overruns etc.
I have been a developer since the days of hex, assembly language and machine code.
You need to enjoy doing this sort of thing, otherwise it becomes a chore.
For me, the better ROI on my time is writing software and selling, I can earn better money this way.
I think that the bug bounties payed by some companies are on the small side, especially when it comes to google.
Good luck OP.
