Actually, Artak's explanation makes sense.

Maybe I'm just overreacting :-[

Privacy is an issue we should all pay attention to.

I can confirm that the only thing your browser will request from paypal when you log into OFPEC is the .gif file for the icon at the bottom of every page.

Paypal gets all it's 'OFPEC specific' information from the client ID in the link address when you submit a donation. There's no information sent behind the scenes ;)

Security is an issue, and one we do take seriously. Though I've heard a few horror stories (none involving OFPEC however!), I've never had any issues with paypal myself. We're always willing to listen to any concerns you might have though.

I'm sure that OFPEC would like to take this moment to reassure all its loyal friends, visitors, families and the bloke we met in the pub that night, that OFPEC has never, and never will, be involved in any illicit activites involving their members Paypal accounts.....

The world is full of nasty people, but the Internet, if viewed with an upto date firewall, virus checker, some other misc. security programs and razor wire around your telephone line, as well as some savvy, is an exceptionally safe place to shop and spend. I personally throw hundreds away each month on 'tinternet.

Where else could I get my Thailand brides from?
