(3) Keep all your important personal information safe.
Don’t give them to strangers who may call you over phone or request them by e-mail.
Personal information includes: your address, e-mail address, phone number, social security number, drivers license, age, information about your family.
Don’t give them to any stranger and, also, teach your children not to do so.
(4) Keep your passwords private.
When creating a password, avoid using phone numbers, birth dates or social security numbers.
Be creative. Use a password that is not easy for others to guess, and yet not easy for you to forget.
Change your passwords often. Use phrases to help you remember them.
Don’t disclose passwords to anyone.
(5) Use a credit (but never debit) card to make your payment.
Be sure to keep all credit card payment receipts. Check your credit card account statements to be able to spot any unauthorized charges.
When you buy certain goods and services from some companies, sometimes they will keep billing you thereafter. So scrutinize your statements. If you see a charge you’re not sure of, call billing merchant and check it out.
Keep your credit cards secure.
Avoid making a payment using your credit card on a public computer.
Report any lost credit cards immediately and have them cancelled. Don’t give anyone that you don’t know your credit card number.
(6) Read return policy before placing an order.
Be sure that you read and understand return policy and warranty.
(7) Read and understand company’s privacy statement (or policy).
A privacy statement tells you how and why a business is collecting your information, and how that information may be used. You may find company’s privacy statement (or policy) at very bottom of home page or inside their "Terms & Conditions" or "Terms of Service" (TOS).
(8) Use a secure browser and server.
Be sure whatever browser you’re using complies with industry’s security standards, such as secure sockets layer (SSL).
This security protocol scrambles or encrypts personal information you send over Internet to ensure your transaction is secured.
How do you know if server is secure where you’re making a payment?
If a Web site is using secure technology, its Web address begins with https and a tiny locked padlock appears at bottom right corner of screen. (9) Check out a few stores and compare prices before buying. Look for hidden costs such as shipping and handling.
(10) Use Yahoo Search Engine for all your searches.
Yahoo continues to be, not only largest online company, but also, best Search Engine.
Unlike other popular Search engine, which keeps companies in a sandbox for many months and refuses to give them rankings for many months, Yahoo is pro business and gives immediate rankings to companies and business.
Their search result is also excellent. That may be one reason why 60% of people online (including me) love Yahoo.
Also, they have most reliable and best hosting service in world.
For these reasons, I strongly recommend you use Yahoo to do all your searches.
Happy and safe online shopping.
Warmly,
