How secure is Paypal?

I saw a thing on 2020 about how they change the credit card machines at dodgy gas stations so that when you swipe it just stores all the information, then they can put that data onto a different card and voila! you have a carbon copy of another credit card.

As long as you shop around for a good credit card, most will never hold you liable for fraudulent charges. I recommend AMEX blue

I think a common way might be the hosts file, you know redirecting to some other place all the while maintaining the same website name, like AbBh said.

Social engineering has rather now become commercial engineering tbh. What with all the "lottery" emails and people signing up for them.

You mean 'phishing attacks' and the like, don't you? I'm wise to that rubbish - I regularly get emails about bank accounts requesting details, I just bin 'em.
