Credit Card Fraud Prevention tips:
• Don’t give out your credit card number(s) online unless the website is both secure and reputable. Sometimes a tiny icon of a padlock appears to symbolize a higher level of security to transmit data. This icon is not a guarantee of a secure site, but may provide you some assurance.
• Before using a site, check out the security software it uses to make sure that your information will be protected.
• Make sure you are purchasing merchandise from a reputable/legitimate source. Once again investigate the person or company before purchasing any products.
• Try to obtain a physical address rather than merely a post office box and a phone number. Call the seller to see if the number is correct and working.
• Send them e-mail to see if they have an active e-mail address and be wary of sellers who use free e-mail services where a credit card wasn’t required to open the account.
• Do not purchase from sellers who won’t provide you with this type of information.
• Check with the Better Business Bureau to see if there have been any complaints against the seller before.
• Check out other websites regarding this person/company.
• Be cautious when responding to special offers (especially through unsolicited e-mail).
• Be cautious when dealing with individuals/companies from outside your own country.
• If you are going to purchase an item via the Internet, use a credit card since you can often dispute the charges if something does go wrong.
• Make sure the transaction is secure when you electronically send your credit card numbers.
• You should also keep a list of all your credit cards and account information along with the card issuer’s contact information. If anything looks suspicious or you lose your credit card(s) contact the card issuer immediately.
