I’ve been telling friends and family, for at least 10 years, maybe more, the only safe way to go to PayPal, is to type the address into the browser yourself, starting with HTTPS.
- judge2020 7y agoPaypal is preloaded, so you're not required to start with HTTPS. https://hstspreload.org/?domain=paypal.com https://hstspreload.org/?domain=paypal.com
- Retric 7y agoWhile that includes Chrome, Safari, Firefox, IE, and Edge that’s not every browser and it’s a really bad habit to get into. Especially as the preload lists are yet another attack surface.
- rocqua 7y agoIt would be so nice if paypal actually did the same thing. Instead they are training their users to just click on that link in the e-mail.
