It's time to move away from Paypal and use a credit card when buying online. Fraud protection with credit cards is much stronger. Paypal has proven itself bad for consumers again and again.
- EricE 3y agoIt boggles my mind that people still think paypal is trustworthy.

- brianwawok 3y agoHey, before Paypal buying on eBay was sending someone a money order or a check. It was a million times better / more trustworthly / more reliable / faster.
- acdha 3y agoI don’t like PayPal but I am impressed by their ability to stay popular. I think the first “don’t use this company, they’ll help scammers screw you” horror story I heard was before the turn of the century, and it’s not like they didn’t have competition at any point but they managed to get locked into a lot of people’s minds as the best option.

- BobaFloutist 3y agoThe advantage of PayPal is you don't have to give anyone your payment information.
- dragonwriter 3y agoBut you do: you have to give PayPal your payment information. Sure, you don't have to give other people your information, but honestly there are few people that I’d want to business with that I feel less comfortable giving payment information to than PayPal.
- pasttense01 3y agoPaypal is available for a great many small, part-time sellers while accepting credit cards are not. Suppose you were selling some stuff and I wanted you to mail it to me. Could you accept a credit card for payment?
