Before buying online

Normally the automatic update function is activated, but in case of doubt check this option, since the operating systems are updated as security problems are discovered in them. online shopping websites in bangladesh
2. Of course have your antivirus and antispyware installed and updated As I mentioned in my article about the tools to protect your computer, there are very good and free...

3. Use Firewalls (Firewalls)

Win XP, Win Vista and Win 7 already include their own free Firewall and it has been improving in each version.

4. Be suspicious of emails with great offers and special discounts

Especially if you have not asked for anything, if you have not registered on the pages to receive offers, if the mail is from a stranger, remember this

"The cheap, it is expensive!"

You already made the decision to buy online then

Very important

5. Do not make online purchases from a third-party PC or from an open WiFi network

Never in Internet cafes, libraries or similar sites, never from the Wi-Fi networks of establishments that provide this service to their customers, as it could put your bank or financial data at risk.
To get experience, I recommend buying from known and trusted sites such as eBay, Amazon, Fnac, Privalia, Groupon, etc. You can also buy on other sites of course ... but make sure, who is behind the page where you want to buy, that the company or person inspires confidence.

6. Find out whom you are dealing with

Anyone (you know good or bad) could create a virtual store under any name. Verify contact information make sure you can ask questions and solve problems. If you are browsing and suddenly you are asked for your financial data online or via email, do not answer the email or click on any link.
Companies that legitimately sell online will not ask you for personal or financial information by these means.

7. Make sure of the product you are buying

Read the product description carefully. Check the fine print to ensure the status of the product you are buying. Be very clear about the final cost some companies include shipping costs, processing, etc. in the price and others add it at the end when you have already decided on the purchase, this usually varies the price that you think you are going to pay for the products.

Do not buy in places where the payment method is sending cash or make money transfers.
Check how are the return policies, cancellations of purchases, dates and delivery methods If at last when the product arrives you decide that it is not of your satisfaction, can you return the item and have your money refunded?

If you return the product who will pay the shipping costs? Can you find out how your shipment is going? In many places they give you a code to track your order, to control the estimated delivery dates. Last call to embark and buy online! Ok, you are, you found your offer, you verified everything and you decide to buy

ATTENTION

8. Before making the payment make sure that the site is a secure site

How? In the address bar, you will have to see a closed little basket and before the web address, the acronym https instead of the usual the s at the end indicates that it is a safe site.

9. Use credit or debit card

Get advice from the bank that has issued it to you about your anti-fraud plans. It is better than the card you are using has a reduced credit limit, there are even cards that are only used to buy online.

10. In case the flies… check your accounts regularly

If you notice that there is a strange transaction, contact your bank to stop that payment and change your card number. All these tips are the ones I follow (I buy a lot online and never had problems). They are also the ones I give to my students, friends, and family.
I hope you become an online buyer, but they act with caution. for more article https://charliei.blogspot.com/
