<div align=justify>Based on my knowledge and experience in order to avoid being ripped off, always study the characteristics of an online shop. By doing so it will help you gain knowledge and be aware of the website where you decide to purchase. Besides, it is also important that you choose a reputable online merchant or website in order to avoid being ripped off so that you can purchase any items with confidence from any internet store. The attributes that you need to look out for in any website to gain confidence in purchasing online are: Look at the quality and number of pages of quality content the website has. Typically if that website is a fraud then the person mustn’t really work a lot to put much effort for the website just for the purpose of taking advantage of other people. It’s too much sweat for a short-term gain. Secondly, online store that accepts American Express (AMEX) should be at the top of your list. Although other cards like Visa, MasterCard and Discover are good, AMEX I believe has the best customer service. Visa, MasterCard, and Discover can be obtained at no charge, while you must pay a fee each year to use American Express. Always use AMEX when shop online, as it is much more safer. I highly recommend it. Well, if you don’t see these logos on websites that you decide to purchase item doesn’t mean they’re not reputable. However, if they do display these logos then most likely they are. Besides all the information above, you might also want to check out additional items like: Notice whether the website displays a telephone number on their page. This is important so that if you have any problems during buying process or about their product, you can contact them straightforward from their telephone number. Don’t ever depend on their email. My conclusion is always use a credit card when shop online. Using a credit card is your protection to get your money back if the unfortunate event happens during the buying process. </div>
