Paypal has a 2-factor login, the PayPal Security Key here: https://www.paypal.com/webapps/mpp/security/security-protections
It sends you a 1-time PIN vis SMS to your mobile phone. 2-factor is pretty nice but they often differ. Google has an "Authenticator" app which I prefer to SMS. Others use a physical "dongle". SMS is popular. -- Owen On Mon, Nov 23, 2015 at 2:15 AM, Tom Johnson <[email protected]> wrote: > I continue to use both, a lot, without a problem. > TJ > =================================== > Tom Johnson - Inst. for Analytic Journalism > Santa Fe, NM > SPJ Region 9 Director > [email protected] 505-473-9646 > =================================== > On Nov 23, 2015 12:38 AM, "Nick Thompson" <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> Everybody (or anybody), >> >> >> >> Some years back, PayPal got hacked and I cut off all contact with them. >> Now I am in a situation where there is something I can only buy through >> paypal.
