PayPal kiting

Similar to check kiting.

Using the 1-2 day delay in funds being withdrawn from an account through PayPal to pay for an item, knowing there is no cash in the account at the time of purchase.

Usually resulting in an overdraft fee, but not in a declined purchase.

Had to pull a little PayPal kiting last night, but ya girl needed that Door Dash.
