Paypal Myths
I don't want a paypal account and don't like them?
ANSWER: No problem. You don't need one to buy my lessons. Several years ago Paypal stopped requiring everyone to sign up. Now you just buy something through Paypal just like any other Verisign secure site. Just click the link on my site to BUY a lesson then take a few seconds for the secure process and you then click "RETURN TO MERCHANT" and it will lead you to the lesson. Simple and secure without the requirement of a paypal login.
My friend got hacked on paypal and they drained his account so I refuse to use paypal!
ANSWER: First of all these stories are greatly exaggerated and often just repeated rumors. Paypal is no more likely to be hacked than your own bank. The only way a person can be hacked is if they do something that compromises their own security such as easy to guess passwords or they click links inside of fake Paypal scam emails and give someone all their secret information. Never at any time visit any site via a link in an email. Always visit websites by typing in the address with your own fingers.
How can I protect my bank account and credit card?
ANSWER: Very simple. Don't connect your primary checking account to paypal. Use a secondary free checking account available at most good banks. Then tie that one into Paypal. When money comes in you can simply do an instant transfer to the secure accounts and keep all paypal transactions VERY secure and isolated from your actual accounts. Next you can use a credit card as the source of funds whenever buying something through paypal which gives absolute protection. This system is solid as a rock.
I heard Paypal has no customer service and insecure!
ANSWER: Well there were a few bumps in the road years ago when paypal began but since that time the security and practices of Paypal have improved dramatically and they are now owned by the most secure online transation company on earth Verisign. Paypal does respond to customer service requests but they cannot prevent someone from doing something very stupid and getting scammed. As will all money transactions some common sense and security has to be practiced.
I don't buy anything over the web!
ANSWER: Oh yes you do. Every bank and retail transaction you make daily not only goes across the web but chances are through the same systems. Just like airplane flight you might be afraid of flying but frankly it's safer than driving. You are much safer buying a lesson online through paypal than mailing me all your information in a letter which can be intercepted in the mail or lost.MY GUARANTEE - I guarantee there has never been anyone scammed while buying my lessons or any other transactions via Paypal in all the years I've been doing it. I guarantee to cover any customer service issues and make sure you are never ripped off while buying my lessons. These are under a very secure encrypted applet that connects you to Paypal via a secure connection. Furthermore your whole transaction is guaranteed safe by your credit card company.
