Safe Shopping Online


Check the seller's reputation.
Learn as much as you can about companies or individuals before you do business with them.
Check with the Better Business Bureau and consumer agencies to find out about complaints.
See if the seller's Web site has a feedback forum where other people who have done business with the seller can put information about their experience with that seller.
Ask your friends about their favorite online merchants.
Stay vigilant. Just because a seller has no complaints or a good reputation doesn't guarantee that things will go smoothly for you.
Use a secure browser Your browser should be able to use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), which scrambles or encrypts the purchase information you send over the Internet, helping to secure your transaction.
