INTRODUCTION
Shopping online is a form of electronic commerce which allows consumers to directly buy
goods or services from a seller over the Internet using a web browser. Alternative names
are: e-web-store, e-shop, Internet shop… Mobile commerce describes purchasing from an
online retailer’s mobile online or app.
CONTENT
Online shopping does not have space constraints and a wide variety of products can be
displayed on websites. It helps the buyers to purchase a product after a good search.
Customers can purchase items from the comfort of their own homes or work place.
Shopping is made easier and convenient for the customer through Internet. It is also easy to
cancel the transactions.

Customers do not have to stand in queues in cash counters to pay for the products that have
been purchased by them. They can shop from their home or work place and do not have to
spend time travelling. The customers can also look for the products that are required by
them by entering the key words or using search engines.
3. Comparisons
Companies display the whole range of products offered by them to attract customers with
different tastes and needs. This enables the buyers to choose from a variety of models after
comparing the finish, features and price of the products on display. Sometimes, price
comparisons are also available online.

product at all. There are many cases of cybercrime where customers debit or credit
cards details are misused to make fraudulent transactions.

shopping portals, customers have to bear the cost of returning the product. If you return
the product, you will not be paid shipping charges which you had paid earlier. If you are
shopping for cosmetics like a lipstick, they can't be returned.
Scammers who send phishing emails rely on you to click the link in the email to be taken to
a retailer’s ‘website’ – and the same with links on poisoned search results. Those links then
lead you to cleverly designed copycat websites. When you think you are putting your
username and details into Amazon’s website, you are actually giving it to a cybercriminal.
To make sure you are visiting the actual, authentic retailer's website, it's much safer to type
the retailer's URL into the address bar on your web browser. It may take a little more effort,
but this simple action can help to prevent you from visiting a fake website.
2. Get a temporary credit card
Cybercriminals have developed sophisticated techniques and malware that can sometimes
thwart your best efforts for safe online shopping. As another level of security, you can use a
temporary credit card to make online purchases instead of your regular credit card. Ask
your credit card company if you can be issued a temporary credit card number.
Many credit card companies will do this, enabling you to make a one-time purchase. This
prevents scammers who manage to steal your credit card number from making any
additional fraudulent purchases. However, avoid using these types of credit cards for
purchases that require regular payments or auto-renewal.

Some banks also offer virtual credit cards. These are just like your regular card, but a
random account number is generated for each purchase, preventing hackers from using the
number again.
Similar to creating a 'clean' computer, you can do the same with an email address. Create an
email address that you will use only for online shopping. This will limit the number of spam
messages you receive and reduce the risk of opening potentially malicious emails disguised
as sales promotions or other notifications.
For example, if you use your dedicated online shopping email for Amazon but receive a
message from Amazon in your primary email account notifying you of an issue with an
order or your Amazon account, then you know it is probably a fake or malicious message
sent by cybercriminals.

antivirus and internet security software products include password management and
