A website asks for PayPal username and password?

[hitokaji]

Hi. I'm kinda new to Paypal system even though I have an account for years. The thing is now I want to create a website for my business. I goggled and found some good websites called iPage and justhost.com. When they ask about my method of payment for sigh up fee, I choosed PayPal. What makes me feel uncomfortable is that both of them ask for my PayPal username and password, saying that it will redirect me to PayPal page. These websites seem to be very trustworthy but still.... I'm not comfortable giving my PayPal password.

My question is, can I give them my password? Is there any way PayPal Admin can check if these website are safe for me? If I don't type in my PayPal password, the sign up process won't be finished. 😞

Thank you for answer in advanced. I'd really appreciate a quick response as I have only 12 hours left to sign up before the promotion is gone!

NEVER give out this info!   There are too many scammers who have honed their dishonest art and Paypal does not care.  Google paypal scams and see.

Also, paypal has unlimited use of your credit card when you sign up so beware.  Also, if you sign up for their bogus bank account link, you might as well give them all your money.  Paypal does not insure anything and they don't care.

Thank you so much! Your reply did make me stop and think twice about these website. I start searching more info about them and found some people did complain about them, mostly about downtime and not refundable money. 

Also, I may think twice about continuing PayPal service as well. As soon as I tried to withdraw my money from them to my Bank account today, PayPal just limit my access to my account. Everything is on hold and I paid the transaction fee for nothing.... I'm unhappy right now. 😞

Thanks again for opening my eyes!
