Here are some tips to remember when you’re shopping online.

– Be careful when buying through social media. Scammers use these platforms, too.

– Pay with protected methods of payment, like your bank card, not by bank transfer.

– Stay on the website you’re purchasing from and only deal with sellers through that site.

– Research the seller, their selling history and check any reviews.

– Only approve payments in the app or with a text message code when you know it’s genuine.
