PayPal security poor.

Booked a film from YouTube £3.49, I do throw money away sometimes. I scanned a code on the TV not sure what or how to pay my £3.49. Soon YT said Play, Amazed , perhaps I pay later or even a free trial. Not so
Google had paid on my behalf, no password and they had been in my PayPal account.
I have changed password not saved , never. I thought Google / PayPal should have given me some notification or asked for password. I have taken steps to stop this happening again but you have to be careful.
A great 1978 film. The Great Train robbery Sean Connery, Donald Sutherland, Lesley Ann Downe.
Come on Shrewsbury

You must have allowed Google at some point to make payments via your PayPal account.
If you've bought something in the past using Google then entered PayPal as your funding, Google will remember it for next time if you've clicked the remember details tick box.

Mine remembers my bank details if I make payment via Google.

Yeah I bought Tivimate companion few years ago and Google stored my details,
Most of my apps etc have 2 step verification, but sometimes I forget , my eBay automatic pays with PayPal, no code or password request. Must be something I have missed .
