This is a question Expensive Mistakes

coopsweb asks "What's the most expensive mistake you've ever made? Should I mention a certain employee who caused 4 hours worth of delays in Central London and got his company fined £500k?"

No points for stories about the time you had a few and thought it'd be a good idea to wrap your car around a bollard. Or replies consisting of "my wife".

Never link a bank account to a paypal account
This is another example of why you should never link a bank account to a paypal account.
Pay by credit card. If you get defrauded just tell the credit card company the transaction was not authorised and they will charge it back to paypal. Merchants take the risk in "card not present" credit card transactions.

Paypal want a bank account number to register as a seller so just give them a sort code for a real uk bank and a made up account number. They won't find out it's invalid until they try to take money from you.
