Fake E-commerce Site
During the festive season scammers become active, who create fake websites like e-commerce platforms like Amazon and Flipkart. Up to 90% discount is offered on these websites. In the wake of this offer, many times users reach the wrong fake website, which becomes the reason for fraud. In such a situation, customers should always click on sites with the URL https://.
discount coupon
During the festival season, hackers create discount coupons through malicious codes, which are claimed to get huge discounts. By shopping with these codes, hackers take control of your account, and empty your account in a jiffy. In such a situation, you should not enter any online discount.
Do not click on unknown links
Various posts are seen on social media during the festival season, on which huge discounts are offered. Do not click on any such unknown links, because this is where hacking starts.
Don’t shop on WhatsApp, Facebook and Instagram
Do not buy any product directly from WhatsApp, Facebook and Instagram, as there are high chances of fraud when buying products from these places. Also, there is no return and warranty-guarantee policy after purchasing the product. In such a situation, always buy from a trusted website.
Check Lock URL
Make sure to check the lock URL in the website you are visiting to make online purchases. Please note that the URL of the registered website always has a lock in front of it, which is proof that the website is safe for use.
