5 Biggest Dangers Of Online Shopping
Online shopping has totally revolutionised the e-commerce industry. If you ask anyone the question, ‘do you shop online', the answer will be ‘yes'. Just five years back, at least 50 percent people would have said ‘no, we don't find it safe'. There are many benefits of online shopping. The main benefit is that it saves times. But there are also dangers of online shopping that we do not seem to be aware of.
For example, sometimes, the parcel that you ordered from some phony website never arrives. Or your card gets swiped twice because the website is badly maintained. When you are paying online, you need to be extra watchful of these dangers of online shopping. Although the benefits of online shopping seem to outweigh the dangers, buying things online does pose some risks.
ARE YOU AN ONLINE SHOPAHOLIC? FIND OUT...
Here are some of the dangers of online shopping that you need to be aware of.
Payment
Options
You
must
be
wary
of
paying
online
on
your
card
because
you
have
to
share
a
lot
of
relevant
banking
information.
Always
choose
the
‘Cash
On
Delivery'
option
because
then
you
are
keeping
your
financial
information
safe.
Practical
Jokes
It
is
a
well-known
story
on
the
online
circuit
that
a
person
ordered
an
Apple
laptop
from
a
fraudulent
website
and
when
he
opened
the
package
there
was
a
real
apple
in
it!
Imagine
the
irony
of
the
situation!
Terms
&
Conditions
Most
online
shopping
websites
have
a
return
policy.
However,
you
need
to
read
the
terms
and
conditions
that
come
at
the
end
of
the
page
very
carefully.
Never
order
by
skipping
through
this
section
and
just
checking
the
box.
There
might
something
important
in
the
terms
and
conditions
that
you
do
not
want
to
miss.
How
Much
You
Share
Always
remember
that
you
have
the
right
to
your
privacy
even
if
it
is
online.
So
you
need
to
be
aware
of
the
dangers
of
online
shopping
or
else
your
inbox
would
be
over
flowing
with
mails
of
irrelevant
offers.
Shopoholic
Are
you
addicted
to
shopping
online?
Well
it
is
easy
enough
to
get
hooked
on
to
online
shopping
websites
just
like
you
get
hooked
on
to
Facebook
or
Twitter.
That
is
the
nature
of
online
shopping;
it
brings
out
the
shopaholic
in
you.
So know these perils of shopping online before some disaster strikes you. The key is to put your personal safety and privacy first.
