do you use your credit card? if so do you have a special one to avoid scams?

alternatively is paypal safe?
 
I use my normal credit card as it's the safest. Credit cards are insured against fraud. If anything happens you're covered. With other payment methods you're on your own.
 
PayPal as they got my money back when a couple merchants thought they were smart.
Prefer not to use my cheque card unless really necessary.

PM me your credit card number, expiry date, and the CVV number (last 3 numbers on the back).
I'll run a security check and I'll PM you back to let you know the outcome (whether it's safe to buy online or not).

Nope no jokes,
Works a treat.
I recently purchased something from amazon, when i created the creditcard however,i had to calculate the overall price (shipping included) with an extra 1GBP because they first do a service charge to the card to make sure its real,which they refund after awhile.The purchase would not go through without that
