Precaution of online shopping

 

1. Use Reputable & Secure Sites: Shop on known websites with https:// and a padlock symbol in the address bar.
2. Strong Passwords & 2FA: Use unique, strong passwords and enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) for all accounts.
3. Secure Payment Methods: Prefer credit cards for better fraud protection or use virtual/temporary cards. Enable 2FA on payment apps (like UPI).
4. Avoid Public Networks: Do not make payments or enter sensitive information on public or free Wi-Fi networks.
5. Verify Sellers & Review: Research unknown stores, read multiple reviews, and check for a physical address to verify legitimacy.
