Online shopping : good habits to adopt to avoid scams

    Accueil > CULTURE > Shopping

    Since the advent of the Internet, online shopping has become commonplace. Consumers now have access to a wide range of products and services with just a few clicks. However, this extreme ease can also represent a certain danger when it comes to scams and fraud. This can lead to financial losses, sometimes substantial, for consumers. So it’s vital to avoid these inconveniences.

    To begin with, it is absolutely essential to focus on security. You also need to apply certain good practices before making an online purchase. You also need to know which are the best online retailers, the ones you can really trust. Amazon leads the way, but the e-commerce market is growing all the time. Are online scams really on the increase?

    How to avoid scams?

    When it comes to online shopping, avoiding the many scams is a priority for consumers.

    Focus on safety

    These days, there are many websites designed to provide precise information on the various companies in operation. They will enable you to check the authenticity of the company you are about to place your trust in. In short, it is essential to check the seller’s reputation. Generally speaking, it’s the feedback rating system that allows you to assess sellers. Those with positive ratings or comments from satisfied customers are generally much more reliable. It’s just as important to check that the site is secure before providing your personal and banking details. There are nearly 2 billion websites in the world. Not all of them are secure. The site in question should normally use a secure connection to prove its reliability.

    Good practice

    In the event of fraud, using a credit card offers a degree of protection. It is therefore essential when making online purchases. In the event of a problem, you can dispute the transaction with your credit card company. Similarly, it’s important to watch out for prices that are too low. Online scams usually use derisory prices to attract buyers. In this case, it’s possible that the product is counterfeit, or doesn’t exist at all.

    The best online sales websites

    Over the last few years, online sales sites have been multiplying. How about finding out which ones are the most popular?

    E-commerce: a growing market

    In France, the e-commerce market is continuing its sustained growth. Sales are expected to exceed €100 billion. The main drivers of this growth are numerous. The increase in the use of mobile devices is one of them. There is also the increase in online spending by consumers, and the development of new technologies. All this makes it easier to access the various products and services available online.

    Amazon on top

    Amazon was voted best online retailer. This e-commerce site provides consumers with thousands of products. Its services attract customers in droves. Shipping is often free. Payment by credit card is possible, thanks to a fully secure payment service. Amazon also makes it easy to search and compare products. This helps you find the best deals available. Among the top 20 shopping sites like Amazon that you should know about are Leboncoin and C Discount, which are very popular with consumers. There’s also Vinted and Booking.com. Whatever the case, there’s no shortage of online sales sites around the world.

    How can you avoid online scams? That’s the answer we’ve tried to give you. First and foremost, you need to focus on security. In the same way, certain good practices are essential before making an online purchase. The best online retailers can also be a great help. By virtue of their reputation, they are all secure, which greatly limits scams. In the e-commerce race, Amazon leads the way. Will online scams ever come to an end?
