You've never heard of paymate either.  It's a service done by phone that
enables more than one business to have its bills paid that way.  A few
years ago I remember having called it up but haven't got the toll-free
number around any more since I was just on the end when a business I
used stopped using paymate.  Online payments are only as safe as the
computer records in the business Or bank and many of those are far less
safe than many realize.  If you want to keep on top of the successful
hack attacks of businesses and banks, download the security news app for
android or iphone and enable notifications for that app.
