i would say that base on my experience, paypal is legit and its secure. i've been using it for my money transaction online and i was able to transferred money from paypal to my bank account. of course you need to read their policy first specially in withdrawing money as they have minimum amount before you can transfer it to your bank account. the only problem with them is you can't withdraw your money from paypal if your account is not verified though you can still received money. I had that problem before since i dont have any credit card to verify it. but now the problem was solve and everything is doing fine.

I can tell to you, Paypal is secure to transaction Online, perhaps number one in Payment processor. I used paypal since one years ago, and I already give my bank account plus my credit card number. And I don't get problem with that, so Don't worry to verified your account at paypal. Have a nice day!

Definitely, You can trust paypal for sure, I have had my paypal account for 1 year and 2 months now, and I've never had any problems with them, I have one friend who actually works for paypal Customer Service, and she told me that most problems that other people encounters where basically from their own faults and not from paypal itself. So go ahead, you can transact with paypal anytime! Good Luck!

Of course! Paypal is secure. It is the most used online back. And money earning sites trusts them because they pay through Paypal. MyLot also pays through Paypal so got to have no doubts with it! There's nothing to worry about it!

Definitely the most secured payment site online. It's been around like forever. I trust Paypal absolutely. I don't think it will scam its users and risk the reputation that it has built up painstakingly all this years.
