Remember that Bitcoin is still beta software. Don't put all of your money into BTC!

Depends. They need to know what key derivation paths that your wallet uses. Then they have to derive the addresses and send the Bitcoin. Wallets will not accept the extended master public key when sending so it requires advanced knowledge.
