McAfee secure is a rating of the site. you do not use it to send the money ~

PayPal is used as a payment service. McAfee Secure insures the security of the website itself....nothing else. Two very different things.



McAfee Secure does not make any guarantee about the quality of the merchandise that you are buying or the fact that you will even receive the items. It only vouches that the website is secure, not that the vendor is trustworthy.

totally 2 different things.



The site implement McAfee secure to check the website periodically in order to ensure the site is safe and hackers can't penetrate. (to protect you from identity theft, spyware/virus, fraud, scams, etc.)



Paypal is a money transfer service. You use Paypal to make online transaction if the site accepts it. It's just convenient.



The web-site is certainly safe

The McAfee shelter image and VeriSign Secured image are the two basically photos that they positioned there themselves. Plus the fees are ridiculous. you relatively do no longer choose lots (or perhaps any) information previous that to coach that the internet internet site on your question seems relatively suspicious and could probable be prevented.

Just make sure if the website is legit.



Reverse search is Google just to make sure.
