Paypal is easy, I have it.. no fee to sign up but to use it there is a small fee.. http://www.paypal.com/

Considering the number of emails that are sent across the net every day, I think it is highly unlikely yours would be intercepted. Having said that, you could split the information up across a few emails if you wanted. Not that Paypal isn't an excellent solution.

I was thinking about just faxing a money order :mrgreen:
I'm going to download paypal tonight and use that.

I wanted to sign up for Paypal before. I did a net search on "paypal warning". You might want to check this out.

Pay Pal has a warning on their site saying that their site will always be "Paypal.com" or something like that.

I just sighned up yesterday :biggrin:

sent a money order by exspress post.I have to wait for the credit card statement which will show a paypal fee of 1.50(for signing up)there will be a 4 digit number (expander #)that i need to use the account with a credit card.after submitting your credit card to verify info you still need this 4 digit # which will only show on the statement.

Actually if you use internet banking, the number will show up as a charge on your credit card listing within 3-4 days. Thats how I did it :mrgreen: Its still a pain though because you have to wait when you just want to buy, buy, buy now! :razz: :rolleyes:

:idea: :evil: Hmm... Paypal was really good when you buy stuff through ebay... but when you become the seller ... paypal can be a real nightmare. After my experience...I've totally opt out to using both ebay and paypal !! Check out www.paypalsucks.com Lots of horror stories...

but as a buyer.. yah.. spend away and it shud be ok...
