    Quickly before I watch the new South Park Episode, I have a question.

    Once I have entered my credit card information and have added it to my Google account, what protections are there so that people can't steal my Google Password and shop stuff with my card?

    Is there some PIN number I create or some security question?

    In Short, is it possible for a person to get my Google Account Password and purchase stuff with my card attached to the account?

    Thanks, Regards

    Use a strong password and don't give it to anyone, and you should be fine.

    You bank still protects you from unauthorized purchases, so you're covered in any case.

    Agree, it is possible for people to use your card details if they some how got hold of your checkout details but this is no different to someone getting your online banking details.

    Keep a strong password and maybe consider changing it once in a while, you should be covered anyway though.
