Secure Shopping

It is imperative to use different passwords for each of your accounts, even though it is difficult to remember them all. By using the same password for multiple sites, users give hackers easy access to their entire digital life. A single data breach at any of those places leaves you at risk everywhere.

And, avoid using easily guessable or obvious passwords such as password123 or 98765, or even your mobile phone number.

Also, it is advisable to keep track of all the websites that require you to use your email address as the user ID at login. Ensure that the email account has very strong security and recovery information that is unique and hard to guess from all your other accounts. Finally, don't share your pins and passwords, and keep changing your passwords frequently. An excellent way of managing multiple, complicated password is to use a vault or password manager.

Another strategy used by scammers is to attempt you to click on a hyperlink in an online ad or an email that you think will take you to your favorite shopping site but leads to an illegal or illegitimate one. To protect yourself from such scams, hover over the links to see the full URL to ensure where the link is taking you.

If you feel unsure about its originality, it is better not to click on the hyperlink. Instead, you can use your internet browser to visit the brand's trusted website.

Scammers generally target people during busy times, such as the holiday season, when businesses offer promotions to entice customers to shop. Scammers target people receiving confirmation and shipping emails, promos, or digital goodies. They create phishing emails that appear to be from your favorite brand to catch you off guard. But if you look closely, you will find features that will give you a hint that something isn't right.

For example, they usually come from a slightly "off" email address different from the company's official handle. Misspelled brand names, typos, and bad grammar also raise red flags. So before opening, ask yourself: Am I expecting such an email, whether I recognize the sender's email address, and check if it is spelled correctly. Or does the email refer to the company I shop for, or does it come from the company itself?
