Paypal is much more secure and encrypted than other online payment methods... With the ability to simply use your account and routing number off a check to compromise your accounts I do not send checks in the mail, EVER.

Bump: And if you are worried about paypal compromising you, go to the gift card section at your local store and purchase a re-loadable Paypal card.

I've had some one hack my paypal account charge $8,000, it drained my bank account and it was a huge effort to get the charges reversed. It took two months and Paypal reversed the charges and then un reversed the charges. I had my bank account over drawn twice because of paypal. In the end I had the vendor reverse the charges. Then Paypal wanted me to return merchandise I never received, the hackers bought game codes and in game money. I'll never deal with Paypal again, it was a nightmare. They don't have the same protections as a credit card.

The hack accrued because someone hacked a list of usernames and passwords from adobe. Then they try the usernames and passwords on a bunch of different sites.
