Internet has changed the way we do business today! Everything is going into the web. Now you can purchase virtually everything you need in just a click of the mouse. Online stores enable us to shop without actually stepping into the store! We can now send and receive money by electronic fund transfer which most banks today can already provide. We can pay our utility bills like telephone, water and electricity through online payments. Even our monthly credit statements may now come in digital format thus saving paper for our environment. Business and personal transactions has never been this easy, convenient and efficient as ever before.

Viruses and other malicious programs designed to steal your personal information are already widespread in the World Wide Web. Phishing and other scam propaganda pose great danger to everyone. To protect you against these methods of theft, extra precautions should be taken.

3. Transact only on your trusted websites. (Look for SSL certifications)
