PayPal To Offer Security Fob

Within the next few months PayPal will be offering a security fob that receives a new six digit code every 30 seconds. That way, when you enter into a PayPal transaction you will have to enter the code along with your traditional ID/password combination – thereby foiling would-be thieves.

Standard PayPal users will have to pony up $5 for the key while business customers will receive the device free of charge.

Not a bad little device to have for that extra piece of mind. On the other hand it is one more thing to freak out about when you lose your keys.
