One more interesting part of their answer: <snip> In addition to the points above, your credit card company protects you in case of fraud and you would not lose this protection in any way by using the Mint service. </snip> I am neither a lawyer nor do I play one on TV, but I believe if I give my login information to anyone I'm fully responsible for what they do and that I don't have protection any more than I would if I got drunk and went to my ATM and pulled out all my money and spent it on a hooker. Anyway, that's what both my bank and PayPal told me (though not quite in those words <smile>). I think their answer is wrong, and that I would lose my protection.
