Millions of people around the world are enjoying the convenience and fun of shopping on the internet.
Smart cybershoppers will continue to take sensible precautions, just as they have always done when making purchases over the telephone or even at shops.
To minimize any risk associated with using credit cards, here are some 'common sense' practices to keep in mind:

|
Some online stores require you to register a user name and password before buying an item.
Just as you keep your ATM password secret, keep your internet account password secret from outside parties.
If you have an additional password issued by the bank for cardholder identity authentication, keep your personal password secret.
Never share passwords with anyone and avoid using easy-to-guess passwords, such as your telephone number or your birth date.
Use combinations of numbers and letters of at least six characters and change them periodically.
