How To Shop Online

Money : Banking

More and more of us are going online to shop - we are more used to using this excellent and simple and convenient way of shopping.

Whilst it has been around for years, eCommerce has really taken off since about 2003 as people adopt the trend. However there are security issues to be concerned with.

You should ensure that every time you are about to make a purchase, you ensure that there is a secure padlock icon in the bottom right of your screen.

This indicates that you are on a secure server and that the data you send will be encryped. Double click the padlock to ensure that the information it displays tallies.

NEVER EVER submit your personal data on a webpage that is not on a secure connection, as this introduces a security risk.

By following this simple step, you should help ensure your shopping online is safe.
