IS paypal safe?PLEASE READ?

Do you want me to lie ok let me explain they take great measures to keep it safe however your personal Information goes on it and it is possible that someone could get this Information even though pay pal takes great pride in protecting their clients so 100%safe would be a lie but i am confident with it ps Tell your mom its like a bank that they deal with that Information could be stolen too

Paypal is so corrupt it is crazy. I can not believe the amount of people who are fooled into believing that they are protected. I know for a fact they are being sued constantly. I would not trust them any further then I could throw them. BTW pete show a little respect for others. How would you like it if someone called you a suck*ss for kissing up to paypal. Or even a dumb*ss for believing how good they are. So have a little respect for others. Paypal has only proven one thing. The worse you treat people the more they want to use you.

Ok, here are the facts, Paypal is as safe as you can get, for a collection and remit provider, but, if you are receiving money via paypal, make sure it has transfered and cleared into your own bank account before realeasing goods or services, this can take some time, it was in ebay, that I heard of this safe way, because some buyers would send you money through paypal, then after receiving goods, tell paypal they hadn't received such, and paypal, 'bless em' would always beleive the buyer over the seller, goodness knows why, so there you have it, bag your money, then release the goodies.

In terms of money being paid to somewhere, yes it is paid. BUT you can still get scammed if you use paypal. Sorry to burst the bubble. Below is a link to a well known site where people talk about thier issues and try to get help. I do have to say though, its normally the sellers of things that lose out rather then the bidders or buyers of things over the net.

Hi brandon`s mum, I will be honest with you ive been using paypal for about 4 years and have never had a problem, and the only problems i ever hear about is when someone gives out their password

I use paypal all of the time and it is 100% safe

Pay-pal is 99.9% safe I'm C.e.o of and online epilepsy trust and all my members pay pay-pal.

Is secured by a secure socket link so you need not worry but just so you can make your own mind up see the article in the link below which will explain it in built security features.

I have been useing for over 5 years and its never failed yet just make sure you have your firewall running when you make orreceivee payment and all will be fine

I've used paypal many times and i've never had a problem with it.As far as i'm concerned it's 100% safe and reliable.

It's the safest online payment method out there and i mean it, i'm not just saying it. I use it for my ebay account - recently bought a £150 T.V. off ebay nd payed via PayPal - no problems whatsoever, and i pay for my runescape membership with it. It is totally secure.

jagex lol? you play runescape? Paypal screwed me over, i sold a wow account and the person gave me the money but said they didnt get the item so they gave the money back to the person..idc go for it
