GOING FOR ONLINE SHOPPING? READ THIS BEFORE YOU DO IT

Online shopping has made life easy for all users of modern technology (and confusing for rest). Now we can shop anything by just a click and typing some details. Now here comes the tricky part as that click and typed thing can either buy you your good or rob you of your fortune. Number frauds on internet make it all the more important to be vigilant before entering any financial details on sites.
So here are few tips to make your online shopping experience fun-filled and risk-free :-

# First, and foremost, always try to shop online from a reputed shopping site like Amazon, eBay, etc. This is important as these reputed sites take all important measures to make you feel safe and update themselves to counter threats from hackers.

# One of the best way to know about the security aspect of site is to see that color of address bar should change. Usually it its white and changes to yellow or green on secured pages like on sign-up page of Yahoo or Google.

# Try to compare check-out experience to those of well known sites and look for anomalies.

# While filling order form make sure not to give your bank account details.

# Save and print confirmation of transaction. This should have date of purchase along with amount included on it.

Finally I would personally go for offline shopping as it allows you to see and feel and then buy the thing. You may call this old-fashioned but so be it. I would also recommend if you are really going for online shopping then buy from eBay, Amazon i.e. trusted sites. So go ahead make your decision well. Best of Luck have a safe online shopping experience.
