Looking at the payment options at the bottom that's surely not a good idea is it?

    Jeremy Clarkson could have got his money back under the direct debit guarantee... but he didn't.

    perhaps its a seperate selling account.
    so the money is transferred in and then the seller transfers it straight out into their main account.
    i used to do the same

    Hmm, if you put bank details for a savings account online, the theoretical risk would be even smaller, as no direct debits would be able to be set up.
