Lots of people enjoy online shopping. You don't have to sit in traffic jams or wait at bus stops or at train stations. You don't have to collect your product because they deliver it right to your door. But shopping online isn't all great - you need to be very careful when deciding what to buy and where to buy it. Here are some tips. Firstly, Use a secure connection. The easiest way of making sure the connection is secure is to look for the lock sign in the address bar. Another is to look at the start of the website address. If this starts with 'https’, there is a secure connection because the letter ‘s' means ‘secure'. If you see “http” without 's’, don't enter the website. It could be a false website that is trying to steal your personal information. Secondly, use a secure payment method. Only shop on sites that offer secure payment methods like credit cards and other payment systems. This gives you protection in a situation where you and the shop disagree- the shop can't say you did anything illegal, like using another person's credit card to pay. Banks usually contact you if they think something is wrong. Thirdly, create a strong password. It's usually a good idea to change your passwords every few months. Also, try to use a different password for different online shopping sites: once someone guesses one’s password, they can get access to everything you do online. Finally, check other customers’ comments. Always check the seller's history when using online sites. You can get an idea by looking at other buyers’ comments. If you are not sure about a product, you can always send the seller a question and the good sellers will reply fairly quickly.
