First, I have a PayPal account that I use for payments TO me, this is not linked to a bank account, but I can manually transfer funds from PayPal to the bank.
So, if I chose to pay a bill via PayPal, how does this work? Do I need to 'deposit' the funds in advance, do I need to make the transfer AFTER getting a message from PayPal, do I need to setup a link from PayPal to a bank account so it is automatically paid?
Finally, has anyone had problems with UNAUTHORIZED withdrawals by PayPal?

Thank you in advance.
I link a credit card to paypal for payments. That way I have protection afforded any credit card transaction, and my credit card number is not shared with vendors with whom I seldom do business.
