Check Statements You need to check your statements at least once a week to avoid unauthorized transactions or set up account alerts. • If You Are Buying A Gift Card, Read the terms and Conditions Make sure that the store is legitimate and the store is used by the person, before buying a gift card for someone else. • Don’t Use An E-store That Requires More Information Than Necessary To Make the Sale One should only provide details about the method of payment, shipping address, telephone number, and email address. Never give your bank account information, social security number, or license number to companies.

  5. Use A Strong Password Someone else can access your account and change the shipping address and purchase other items while you are still in the billing process. Some tips on how to create a strong password: • A complex set of uppercase and lowercase numbers, letters, and symbols should be used to create a strong password. • Don’t use words that come from a dictionary. • Don’t use the same password on multiple accounts however strong it is. • Is Site Secure? Make sure that the page on the web address begins with “https:” and “http” before entering any personal information on a shopping site. The little “s” determines whether the website is safe and encrypted to protect your information.

  6. Use A Credit Card or Paypal One should not use debit cards or cheques because they don’t offer protection in case a problem arises. If the information regarding your finances is stolen then the credit card only limits your liability to no more than $50 for unauthorized transactions and the money in your bank account is safe. • Always Check The Company’s Shipping terms A shopping bargain can be expensive because of the exorbitant shipping fee charged by the merchant. Check if they are providing tracking and insurance. Be careful if the item won’t be shipped within 10 days and also try to understand what kind of carriers they use. • Use A Reliable Internet Security Program An effective internet security program is the best way to be safe online. Anti-phishing and identity theft protection have become more crucial in recent times.
