What's all this crase about PayPal I'm so appalled seeing Niherian banks running heads over shoulder to market gheir various cards all in the name of PayPal. Haba Before PayPal we survived abi? We can make purchases using Master Card Naira ...thanks to Interswitch and Master Card.

No bank has exclusive partnership with PayPal. If the bank has PayPal on their Internet Banking interface, its just a link to PayPal site and nothing more than that. Don't be hoodwink into the current PayPal crase.

Having a PayPal account doesn't mean merchants on Ebay or elsewhere who abhors shipping to Nigeria would have a change of heart. Neither do those with phobia doing business from an IP address emanating from Nigeria.

Lastly, don't forget that with the coming of PayPal, more bank accounts and debit cards are now at risk of being stolen from those who don't know how to handle social engineering threats.

Please be guided!
