Chances are that if you shop online, you make some Paypal credit card purchases. But if, like me, credit card theft is a very real fear: how safe is this? Transmitting financial data online sounds pretty unsafe. Is it really that secure?

Gone are the days when students spent frivolously and assumed that the credit card would somehow swallow the debt. Nowadays, students are smarter and more financially savvy. They may still use -- and need -- credit cards, but they want that debt kept minimal.
