[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 380326, member: 1991"] With PP, if someone stops payment, they have to justify it. You can then dispute it and it gets investigated. And if they are in the habit of doing this, PP will know about it fast and will take action. They have a reputation of doing this so people tend to not try to scam using PP. I got a PP account ten years ago, when I had books to sell overseas. Then there were problems with the market (nothing to do with PP and I stopped advertising. husband uses the account from time to time to buy stuff overseas. Our Aussie banks charge usorious rates for changes in currency - I got paid in $US a few times and found out the hard way when a bak charged me A$17 just to deposit the US cheque to my account. This doesn't happen with PP. ALso if you are concerned, you can link PP to a dedicated debit card for a dedicated account that you keep only a few $$ in, and use just for PP. We have dedicated credit cards. One we use only for medical expenses, it helps us keep track of them for budgeting and tax purposes. Marg [/QUOTE]
