Paypal provides fraud protection against my bank account. And I can always revoke their SEPA Mandate and demand my money back as long as 6 weeks have not passed since the direct debit. (German law atleast) My bank ensures this by notifying me when I receive a bank statement on the online interface and mailing it me on my own cost via postal service if I don't mark it read (about 5€ IIRC) within a week.
Same goes for any SEPA DD based transactions. Everything else is secured via TAN, which depending on what generator method you choose (SMS, Optical, HBCI or Smartphone App) has varying levels of security (Optical and HBCI are highest atm, then App and SMS last, atleast according to my knowledge and understanding of the implementations).
The only bad part is when paypal fucks you over but that's a given risk when interacting with paypal anyway.
