PayPal warns against using Apple's Safari:
Safari doesn't make PayPal's list of recommended browsers because it doesn't have two important anti-phishing security features, according to Michael Barrett, PayPal's chief information security officer.A perfectly valid reasoning. A couple of Mac users cannot seem to understand the precaution suggested.
In other news, Apple customer service representatives are in denial too.
I called Apple and spoke with a couple of their reps. […] The reps were incredulous about the existence of malware specifically targeting Macs. They looked up articles about it while we were on the phone — they wouldn't believe me until they looked it up for themselves.
I have a couple of friends who use primarily use Mac OSX and other Apple products because of the sense of superiority that comes with it. Most of them are oblivious of the dangers. The sense of invincibility is simply a liability.
