Security Information

There are many consumers who have chosen not to purchase anything online for fear of fraud. However, as long as you follow some simple guidelines, you are just as, or more, safe to shop online.

Advocates on behalf of sellers, Internet Advertisers Bureau (IAB), has recommended five guidelines for safe online shopping:
  • Do you trust the retailer? If you are not already familiar with them, call the retailer directly if you have any doubts.
  • Do they have a secure web site? The padlock icon located at the bottom of the browser window shows you which web sites are secure, registered and encrypted.
  • Don't think you should be held responsible? If your credit card is used fraudulently, note that you have little or no financial liability.
  • Is your password the same from site to site? It's best to vary your passwords and stay away from ones that can be easily guessed.
  • Did you print? Make sure you print a copy of all online transactions for your records.
The IAB points out that Internet credit card fraud is nothing compared to the offline credit card fraud, just use your common sense as you shop online.
