Paypal or Credit Card?

[YIRYDE]

I use a VCC (Virtual Credit Card) for all on line purchases including using it with Pay Pal. If you are not familiar with VCC, it's a credit card number that you generate that's good for a one time usage. This number is linked to your credit card but you don't give out your real credit card number. Some credit cards companies offer this service like Citibank and Discover. I have been using it with Citibank for about 10 years without any problems. It's the only way I shop online and over the telephone without giving out my Credit card Number.

I don't use PP but got a credit card just for Internet purchases. If things go south easy to shut down.

I might have to try this. I purchased an item on Ebay from a Can-Am dealer in Kalamazoo, MI using PP in December. We got our monthly statement last night and found that someone in Detroit was charging $100 purchases at gas stations all around Detroit. They charged $1600 on that statement alone. I don't see how the two could be tied together. The CC company deleted the bogus charges and canceled that card. I need to order some more farkels this week so will look into this option. Thanks for the info!
