    Market Place and Credit Card

    I am not so comfortable about putting my credit card out on the market place, especially now with the economy doing so bad and credit card theft high on the rise. I like to make my purchases through PayPal, and I would like to know if there are any alternative web sites that I can make purchases using PayPal? Thank You.

    You could always buy one of those prepaid cards. That way if something ever happens where someone steals that info or tries to rack up charges, that can't go any more than like $20.

    Get a Paypal Debit card for your Paypal account and use that.

    As I understand it it's using Google checkout, the app maker does not see your credit card info. I definitely trust google checkout with credit more than Paypal (specially if you have paypal linked to checking account).

    You aren't putting your credit card out there on the market all willy nilly. You are putting it into google checkout which is just as secure as paypal. This isn't some third party vendor. It is GOOGLE. It is the same thing you'd use if you happened to say use google shopping...

    It is just as secure as paypal.

    Really? I've got HSBC Mastercard and they didn't make a peep when I started purchasing/returning/purchasing apps.

    cpu vs cell

    I feel safe using credit card on internet - home computer. Just not sure how easy it might be for someone to break in and get my credit card info ona cell phone - doesn't matter if it's google or paypal. I've heard people can tap cell phone conversations, so how can a credit card entered on a cell be safe?
