I keep separate accounts for my debit cards (I have two, redundancy in case one gets lost/stolen/scammed), and only use them where cash is impractical, or I've flubbed my sums and run out of cash. I've had my credit cards hit now and then, and the amounts would have been devastating against a live checking account. If someone hits a debit account, no important payments can fail.

The debit card can wreck your finances if it is scammed and you have payments that can't be made, and PayPal has a reputation of settling disputes by declaring "this is how it is, you cannot appeal" and raiding any account they know about if you don't pay what they tell you to.
