What is PayPal?


PayPal, the trusted leader in online payments, enables buyers and businesses to send and receive money online. PayPal has over 71 million member accounts in 56 countries. It is accepted by merchants everywhere.

Is it safe to use?
PayPal helps protect your credit card information with industry-leading security and fraud prevention systems. When you use PayPal, your financial information is never shared with the merchant.

Why use PayPal?

  • Make purchases or send money with PayPal – it’s free!
  • Shop and pay conveniently by saving your information with PayPal
  • PayPal is accepted by millions of businesses worldwide and is the preferred payment method

Attention!  As with any information that you submit online, you must always exercise caution.  When you sign up for PayPal, you submit your credit card or bank account numbers.  After you sign up, they KNOW your information, so they will NOT contact you via email to have you give them your account information, not even to update your account.  NEVER REPLY to an unsolicited email or go to any link from an email to provide any information.  If you receive an email that looks like it is from PayPal, check to see if it addresses you by NAME.  If it does not, it is not from PayPal, no matter how real it looks.  If you are uncertain whether an email you receive is real or not, forward the email to spoof@paypal.com and ask if it is legitimate.  They will respond to you very quickly.  If you receive an email that asks for any personal information, it is in your best interest to go DIRECTLY to PayPal by typing in the address www.paypal.com and going to your account.  If you need to update any information, there will be a message there for you.  BE VERY SUSPICIOUS OF ANY EMAIL THAT LOOKS LIKE IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN SENT BY PAYPAL.  (If you would like to forward any email you receive that appears to be from PayPal, we will be glad to verify it for you.  Just forward it to customerservice@4secondarysolutions.com)

Important: PayPal and its representatives will NEVER ask you to reveal your password. There are NO EXCEPTIONS to this policy. If anyone claiming to work for PayPal asks for your password under any circumstances, by email or by phone, please refuse and immediately contact PayPal via their secure webform online.  If you are still uncertain whether an email is legitimate, you may also call 402-935-2050.
