Prefer bank account because then I tell bank there money should be transferred and no one else. Then of course there must some kind of secure mechanism to communicate. For large amount of money I prefer an account there I have enter bank in person and bank is responsible for identification, this is because then robbers must go to bank. For transfers over Internet for example using the new modern telephones this could be used for robbery, there is among other problems a problem to get away with the money but chose the right person and there are plenty of money and worth to spend quite much effort on planning.
In my country cards there payment terminal is supplied by seller is most often used. This system assume receiver of money i honest and I guess it's rather simple to modify terminal to show wrong amount. There is however still the problem to get away with the money before anyone discover. It works in a well policed but otherwise I would expect problems. Not especially worried but it sometimes keep me from using them then company could be expected to have bad economy, I also quite often avoid them because I do not want to tell bank where my money is spent. > Gene, > > Even if you did want to use the bank account method rather then PayPal > you would not give the Gnome people your account number.
