Online shopping frauds

Until five years ago, no one expected that the online market in India would grow at such a fast pace and in the coming time, the lotus would also be sold online, but the time has changed, and with this, people's confidence in online shopping is also increased.  The biggest advantage of online shopping is that the same goods are listed by different companies in front of you.  In this way, you see things according to your needs and interests and then buy it.

You do not have to bargain in online shopping, because the same product comes with different prices on different websites.  There are some facilities in online shopping but there is a big scam.  In the online market you can put a slight negligence or mistake in trouble.  So let's know what things you should take care of in online shopping.

Website identification

 The first thing in online shopping is that you should identify the website, because on the social media there are fake links in the name of big companies such as Amazon and Flipkart and many fake advertisements are also shown.  These advertisements are claimed to sell goods worth Rs 10,000 in 100 or 200 rupees.  In such a situation, if you do not understand the website then you can be a victim of a fake and you may also get fake goods.  For example, you can see this message on WhatsApp, in which the Amazon brand has been used, while the url is something else.

How to Identify the Website

 First of all check whether the website is secure or not, because of making any kind of payment on the non-secure site is not free from danger. If a website does not have a green lock mark in the beginning of the url or https in it, then you should not rely on such a website. Such websites may be fraudulent and may steal your credit / debit card or personal information related to the bank. As an example of a secure website, you can see this photo.

Observe Social Media Ads

 Many times a friend sends you a message on whatsapp, which claims to give 15,000 rupees to the smartphone at just Rs 150.  To mislead people in such messages, the logo of the website like Amazon and Flipkart is also used.  You do not have to click on a link that you have received with such messages and do not trust any message.  If you look carefully at such messages then you will find that their URL is by another name.  As you can see in a photo above.

 Many sellers also register bogus products on many well-known and well-known e-commerce websites.  These sellers keep the price of goods less or more in view of market demand.  If you are buying any goods from any website, carefully note the label with it.  For example flipkart assists with flipkart products and amazon done on Amazon is labeled in written form.  Do not buy products with these labels, because e-commerce companies are not responsible for any such product.  You can see this photo to understand.

Cash On Delivery Most Safe

 There have also been cases of online shopping in which payments were made during the purchase but the goods did not arrive and then they would have to go round the court for money.  This is the easiest and safest way to avoid any kind of fraud in online shopping, cash on delivery.  If this facility is available when ordering a goods, then you should choose it.  In this, first luggage is reached to you, after which you have to make a payment.  In such a way, the threat of thumb is reduced.

Do not save the card in online payment

 If a website does not offer cash on delivery for a product and you feel that the website can be trusted, then you can make online payments, but during this time to save your credit / debit card on that site  Do not make a mistake.  In fact, when you enter your card details when making a payment, you get the option of the savings card details.  Many times it is already tick on ok or yes.  Before confirming the payment, remove that tick from yes and select no.  Look at this photo to understand.
