Keep these things in mind while shopping
Debit Card and Credit Card: Keep these things in mind while using debit and credit cards. Keep in mind that during payment you are asked to save the card details, do not save your card details in this, due to this hackers can hack your details.
Forwarded Links: Never click on links on WhatsApp or any laptop without checking. Many times hackers create and share the link of a fake website, due to which your bank account can also be emptied.
Official platform
Whenever you do online shopping, always do it by visiting the official website. If anyone asks for OTP by sharing the link on call or message, do not give it.
Keep in mind while making payment: Whenever you make payment, check the details of your order properly and before purchasing any product, read the reviews and ratings given below. Actually, many times the stuff which looks good in the photo is not so good in reality.
In such a situation, it is important that if you shop online from any platform, then keep these things in mind so that no scam can happen to you.
