Try this quiz to see if you're really up to speed on cyber-shopping and read six tips for safe online shopping. 1. What is Cyber Monday? a. The first Monday after Christmas, when online stores are swamped with returns. b. The Monday after Thanksgiving, traditionally the biggest shopping day of the year. c. Any Monday after a local newspaper runs coupons for Internet specials at local retailers. 2. It's okay to give your Social Security number in only the following situations: a. To major Internet stores with a trusted reputation. b. To nonprofit groups seeking holiday donations. c. Never. 3. True or False: The little padlock icon in your Internet browser is a foolproof way to know you're at a secure, trusted e-commerce website 4. True or False: Because identity thieves are so eager to steal your credit-card numbers, you should do your online shopping with a debit card instead. 5. Which of the following is a risk of even reputable Internet auction sites? a. Fraudulent sellers that won't ship the goods you bid on. b. Escrow scams that trick you into funneling money to con artists. c. Bait-and-switch tactics. d. All of the above. <b>Answers</b> 1. b, the first Monday after Thanksgiving. 2. c, Never. There is absolutely no reason any online organization, including charities, should need your Social Security number. 3. False. While you should check for the padlock icon, it can be faked, or "spoofed," by skilled hackers. Never let down your guard! 4. False. Debit card identity theft is on the rise. Depending on how your debit card is set up, yours could be a direct pipeline to your bank account. A credit card often times is safer to use for online shopping, as it also offers a host of consumer protection measures. Finally, when you report the loss of a credit card within two days you have a $50.00 limit on fraudulent transactions. That may not apply to debit cards. 5. d, all of the above. <font color="blue"><b>6 Safe Online Shopping Tips to remember this holiday season:</font></b> 1. Shop from a secure PC that has up-to-date anti-virus software and that you are using a firewall to block potential intruders. 2. Shop only from vendors that you know and trust or those that have been bonded by a comparison shopping site such as BuySAFE (www.buysafeonline.com). NOTE: If a seller has sent you an unsolicited e-mail message ("spam"), find out more before you buy by researching the vendor. You can check a company's reputation by contacting the Better Business Bureau at bbbonline.org or the Office of the State Attorney General in your state or the state where the seller is located ( naag.org). 3. Using your credit card protects you under a federal law that limits credit card issuers to hold customers liable for only the first $50 of fraudulent transactions. Or, consider using alternate payment methods such as PayPal, a "virtual" credit card (offered by some credit card issuers), or pre-paid gift cards. 4. Verify that the web address on the page that asks for your payment information employs security for the transmission of your payment information to ensure that it cannot be read by anyone else or changed along the way. The web address should begin with "https:" instead of "http." It may also use the words "Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)" or a pop up box that says you are entering a secure area. NOTE: These security protections do not work in e-mail. So, make sure you send personal and payment information in a secure web transaction. 5. For online shopping sites that request passwords, avoid using any passwords you use to access the network, your computer, or for particularly sensitive sites, such as your home banking site. This will help assure that someone is not misusing your computer or personal information. 6. Keep a record of what you pay for and always check your online purchases against your statement[s]. To make accounting simpler, you may want to use one credit card for all online purchases. <b>"I am the Solution to Cyber Safety."</b> http://www.montgomerycollege.edu/cybersecurity/ <i> National Security Institute, Inc.</i>117nov09a.jpgattach/7c6d6686-120b-b834-39e7-49577b80c90b/17nov09a.jpgtn_0.jpgattach/7c6d6686-120b-b834-39e7-49577b80c90b/tn_0.jpg17nov09a.jpgattach/7c6d6686-120b-b834-39e7-49577b80c90b/17nov09a.jpgIT@MCmichele.sommer@montgomerycollege.edu240-567-3146Online shopping is convenient, but it carries with it plenty of risk if you're not careful.
