I'm going to sound redundant, but I'm asking anyway. For instance: My niece asked me to sponsor her two kids in a danceathon to raise money for a music teacher and field trips for her kids' school. The link was through paypal, and I used my visa. does that mean if there is a problem (school overcharging or being hacked, etc.,) I cannot go back to Visa for restitution? Doesn't paypal have some level of protection? I thought they did, or used to.
