If you're using Apple's Safari browser, PayPal has some advice for you: Drop it, at least if you want to avoid online fraud.
… or use common sense. anti-phising isn’t tough. GEE the url isn’t paypal.com? maybe I shouldn’t put in my login?!
Stupid Macs
I agree with you 100%
unfortunately though, there are a shit load of people out there that probably wouldn’t even know what to look for (parents/grandparents/ect)

… people who shouldn’t be doing financial transactions on the Intarwebs? If you aren’t responsible in “real” life to handle money, you aren’t given the privilege.
