Pay Pal is far from perfect. In fact it cannot verify anyone. I believe
this essentially was Jefseys point.

Policemen's Job is to catch crooks and enforce the law. Pay Pal's
purpose is not as a verification method or process. Hence the
error in part in attempting to use it for such a verification method.

I agree with the gist of this comment as Jefsey did not offer
any other suggestion. But others already have. I would suggest
using PGP, RSA, or see the IETF's RFC 2445 for further information.
Another suggested actual verification method is using TLS level 2
certs. These (Level 2 certs) are not obtainable in all countries however.
I would also say that James T's phone call suggestion is also
a good enough method that could be used as well.
