Lets say your phone is stolen, and someone tests to see if they can transfer money via the phone, and actually does it sucessfully, how in the world would paypal protect against this? it seems way to open to be secure, especially from something so portable and easy to lose.

From paypal: Mobile transactions are PIN-protected, so your account is secure, even if your phone is lost or stolen.

there will be an occasional idiot who stores the PIN # on their phone.

Or those who write their pin number on the back of their debit card.
