6 Essential Tips on How to Prevent Online Shopping Fraud
Dear readers and followers, I would first like to wish you a very Happy New Year, good health and great personal and professional accomplishments.
As some of you have already purchased products/services online (and I would like to invite you to share your experience with us) and some others will have at a some point, I am featuring today Israel Defeo as guest blogger on this common topic: Online shopping.
Shopping online is easy. You get what you want in a matter of seconds. Just input your credit card information and voila, that book or jacket or bag is already on its way to you within 24 hours.
This is why more shoppers are switching to e-stores and e-transactions—e-payments, e-banking—are fast becoming the norm. Convenience is the ultimate game-changer. Plenty of online shops, too, offer discounts and freebies like free delivery or free shipping.
However, the rise in e-transactions has also made online fraud possible. To prevent online shopping fraud from happening to you, here are some easy tips you can follow:
1. Keep your credit details a secret.
Like the famous quote said, “There are things better left unsaid.” That may be true especially if it’s about your credit, debit or other essential information that need to be kept secret.
2. Use caution when using your devices for online shopping.
Because it’s more convenient to shop online using smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices with internet access, more consumers prefer to use these gadgets than computers and laptops—which are more secure. Beware of using your handheld devices for transactions that carry your personal and credit card information. In case your device is misplaced or lost, you’re at risk of falling victim to fraudsters and scammers who can extract your private information through the lost device.
3. Beware of phishing websites.
Have you ever seen items on some websites offered at very low prices? Though it can be tempting to purchase low-priced bargain items, it can also come at great risk to the safety of your credit and personal details.
There are internet criminals who create phishing or fraudulent websites which trick you into signing up and disclosing your private information. Some of these websites duplicate the content and design of legitimate ones to fool shoppers like you into revealing their credit card details. At this point, it may be better for you to let common sense—or your gut feel—rule. If you feel like the price is unbelievable or a deal sounds too good to be true, chances are, it is. Stay away from fishy-looking sites as much as possible to keep from being a victim of identity theft.
4. Verify if the website is legitimate or not.
Remember, Google is your friend. This search engine can help you find any information you need to get your hands on. Search for the name of the website and see if there’s anything involving “scam” or “fraud” mentioned in blogs, forums or other online sources.
5. Don’t click hyperlinks from random emails.
You probably received not just one, not just two, but more emails about offers and discounts about a product or service in your email. Be mindful of clicking links attached to those messages because it may redirect you to fraudulent websites or phishing sites. Also beware of attachments you receive from untrusted sources. These may contain viruses and malwares that may not just harm your electronic devices, but can also swipe information from your units.
Sometimes, web mail servers can filter unreliable messages and put these messages in the Spam folder of your email. So make sure this feature is enabled in your settings.
6. Beware of bogus sellers lurking in social media sites
Social media sites are also used by small-scale entrepreneurs to market their products and promote their services to a wider audience. It has been an advantage to both sellers and buyers because Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and other social media platforms can be used for easy communication, placing orders, and completing transactions because it allows real-time responses.
However, scammers can easily post photos and create bogus accounts about bogus products or services. So be mindful of the sellers you buy from. If they cannot ship or send the product they promised after a transaction, you may have already been scammed. To avoid this fate, make sure to call up the seller before you even buy anything. If you smell or hear something fishy or that makes your antennae quiver in suspicion, go and search for another seller until you find one you can trust.
So be careful whenever you use your credit card. Follow the tips mentioned above to help you make sure your credit card and credit information are both safe—and to keep online fraud from happening to you.

10 Ways to Prevent Your Identity From Being Stolen
Today, we welcome our guest Amanda Kostina who is a green living enthusiast and a blogger for withefence.com. She generally writes about green lifestyles, eco-friendly businesses, and frugal living. Amanda is always passionate about making the world a better place for the generations ahead.
Bellow, you can read Amanda’s interesting guest post on how to prevent identity theft.
One of the fastest growing crimes in the United States, identity theft affects millions of Americans. From phishing scams to taking advantage of the information in a lost or stolen wallet, criminals have a variety of options when it comes to methods of exploiting your information for their own gain. Fortunately, there are also a few simple steps you can take to protect yourself against their nefarious efforts, maintaining control over your own identity and preventing it from being stolen.
1.Clean Out Your Wallet – Many people keep their Social Security cards on their person for easy access, but this practice can easily put one of your most sensitive pieces of personal information into the hands of identity thieves if your wallet is stolen or becomes lost. Make a point of storing your Social Security card in a safe place other than your wallet, and of periodically clearing out any bits of paper bearing sensitive information.
2.Come Up With Creative PIN Numbers – Choosing your wedding anniversary or the birth date of a child for account pin numbers makes them easy to remember, but it also makes them relatively easy for would-be identity thieves to guess. A jumble of numbers or letters that have no connection to one another is ideal, as the random nature makes them much more difficult to suss out.
3.Memorize PIN Numbers – The major selling point of using an important date or significant number as the PIN on a financial account is ease of memorization, but that also makes them easy to guess. When you do come up with a secure PIN, don’t write it down and leave the slip of paper in your wallet or on your person, as that information would fall into the hands of an identity thief right along with the card it’s attached to if your wallet is ever stolen. Take the time to memorize the number instead.
4.Check Your Mail – Letting your mail pile up while you’re on vacation or simply forgetful can leave you with more than just a clogged mailbox. It can also up the chances of documents containing sensitive information being taken by an unscrupulous passerby. Make sure that you’re clearing the mailbox every day, or that you make arrangements for the postal service to hold your mail while you’re traveling.
5.Invest in a Document Shredder – Dropping sensitive documents into a shredder is the work of a moment, and it makes it much more difficult for criminals to steal discarded papers from your garbage can or recycling bin with sinister aims.
6.Monitor Account Activity – Opting out of paper statements from your bank and other financial institutions not only keeps your statement out of the mailbox, but also helps you to do your part for the environment by eliminating a bit of unnecessary paper use. Instead, check your statements and monitor activity online. You’ll be able to keep an eye on your account any time you like, and you won’t be leaving personal information on a statement that’s up for grabs to any thief in the area.
7.Check Your Credit Report Annually – By federal law, you are entitled to one free credit report each year. It’s wise to take advantage of that right, not only to keep an eye on your rating, but also to check for signs of old identity theft or fraudulent activity.
8.Install Anti-Virus Software – Your computer makes paperless billing and statements available, allows you to conduct transactions from the comfort of your home and is an indispensible tool for the modern American. Without proper anti-virus and security software, it’s also an open invitation for identity theft and fraud. Make sure that you’re running up-to-date and reliable software to protect your PC, too.
9.Be Cautious Online – Whether you’re looking for work online or applying for financing, there are a wide variety of helpful tools to be found on the Internet. Unfortunately, there can also be a minefield of potential issues for those who aren’t cautious in their online dealings. Make sure that you’re only sharing sensitive information with reputable sources.
10.Practice Smart Phone Strategies – Unless you initiated a phone call and are sure you’ve reached the intended party, it’s wise to make a practice of never providing personal information over the phone. This especially holds true with unsolicited sales or marketing calls, because you can’t always be sure that the person on the other end of the line is a legitimate representative. To be safe, decline any offers that would require the sharing of your social security number, financial account details or other sensitive information.

ii. Type the names of 3-5 of your trusted friends. You can select them one by one.
Don’t forget to click “Confirm” (Fig.12).
To select good trusted contacts:
– Choose people you trust, like friends you’d give a spare key to your house.
– Choose people you can reach without using Facebook, ideally over the phone or in person, since you’ll need to contact them when you can’t log in.
– Choose more people to help you. The more friends you choose, the more people who can help you when you need it.

v. In order to make sure you are the one who made the selection of your trusted friends, Facebook sends you a message (check your mailbox linked to your Facebook account) confirming you added trusted friends (Fig.15).
If you did not do it, then someone most likely hacked into your account. Change your password immediately!
Fig.15
vi. Using Trusted Contacts
Once you’ve set up your trusted contacts, if you ever have trouble logging in, you’ll have your trusted contacts as an option to help. You just need to call your trusted contacts and let them know you need their help to regain access to your account. Each of them can get a security code for you with instructions on how to help you. Once you get three security codes from your trusted contacts, you can enter them into Facebook to recover your account.
With trusted contacts, there’s no need to worry about remembering the answer to your security question or filling out long web forms to prove who you are. You can recover your account with help from your friends.
***Note: If you have set up your secure browsing, login notifications and chose your recognized devices and you receive an email from Facebook notifying you that someone tried to log on your account on X day from Y location using Z device (and none of those are related to you), then Change your password immediately (as explained under section 1 of this Blog post), because definitely someone tried or succeeded to fraudulently log into your account! (See example in Fig.16).

How to: Deactivate, Delete, Memorialize or Remove a Facebook account
Continuing a series started this summer about how Google (original post here) and Yahoo users (original post here) could control their data, E-Crime Expert presents today how Facebook users could control their data by having their accounts deactivated, memorialized or deleted.
Facebook does not disable profiles if they are not being actively used as Yahoo does.
The only way a Facebook account closes is if the user chooses to disable it (deactivate or delete); or when a family members for example (i.e. of a deceased account holder) requests the memorializing or removing of an account; or as a result of a breach of Facebook terms and policies.
1. Deactivate your account
1) Log on your Facebook account, click on the “Settings” pictogram (step 1) and then select “Account settings” (step 2) from the drop-down menu (Fig. 1).
Fig. 1
2) Chose the “Security” (step 1) tab on the left side menu (then “Security settings” will display on the right), go to the bottom of the “Security settings” menu where you’ll see the “Deactivate your account” button (Fig.2). Click on it (step 2).
Fig. 2
3) A new page will be displayed, chose one of the reasons you are disabling your account (Step 1), check the “Opt out” box if you do not want to further receive emails from Facebook (Step 2) and then click on “Confirm” (Step 3). Fig. 3.
Fig. 3
4) A pop-up Notification will appear prompting you (for security reasons) to introduce your password (Step 1). After introducing your password click on the “Deactivate Now” button (Step 2) as described below in Fig. 4.
Subsequently, your account will be deactivated.
Fig. 4
When you deactivate your account, your timeline and all information associated with it disappears from Facebook immediately. People on Facebook will not be able to search for you or view any of your information.
If you’d like to come back to Facebook anytime after you’ve deactivated your account, you can reactivate your account by logging in with your email and password. Your timeline will be restored in its entirety (friends, photos, interests, etc.). You will need to have access to the login email address for your account in order to reactivate it.
2) Delete your account
Directly click on this link.
Or follow the steps bellow if you are not logged in your Facebook account:
1) Log on your Facebook account, clcik “Settings” (Step 1) and then click on “Help” (Step 2) from the drop-down menu (Fig.5).
Fig. 5
2) Type in the search box (Step 1): “Delete my account” and then click on the “How do I permanently delete my account” (Step 2) link from the options displayed in the drop-down menu (Fig.6).
Fig. 6
3) A new menu will open where you need to click on the “Fill out this form” (The red box illustrate in Fig. 7)
Fig. 7
4) The last step requires you to click on “Delete My Account” button displayed (Fig.8).
Fig. 8
Permanently deleting your account means you will not ever be able to reactivate or retrieve any of the content or information you’ve added. Your account will be permanently deleted with no option for recovery.
3) Memorializing Accounts
When a person passes away, Facebook memorialize their account to protect their privacy. Here are some of the key features of memorialized accounts:
• No one can log into a memorialized account and no new friends can be accepted
• Depending on the privacy settings of the deceased person’s account, friends can share memories on the memorialized timeline
• Anyone can send private messages to the deceased person
• Content the deceased person shared (ex: photos, posts) remains on Facebook and is visible to the audience it was shared with
• Memorialized timelines don’t appear in People You May Know and other suggestions
If you need to report a timeline to be memorialized, please contact Facebook here.
And follow the 5 steps bellow (Fig. 9)
1. Link to the timeline of the person you submit the request for;
2. Insert the email address of the account you submit the request for;
3. Indicate your relationship status with that person;
4. Insert a link to a public/private commemoration of the deceased person (i.e. obituary or news). Please consider to NOT upload videos or pictures;
5. Click on memorialize account.
Fig. 9
4) Removing the account of a deceased person
Verified immediate family members may request the removal of a loved one’s account from Facebook by clicking here.

Yahoo deletes IDs of inactive email accounts starting with July 15!
E-Crime Expert recently launched a series (see the first blog post here) on how you control your data stored online by different (e-mail) Service Providers. This could be done directly (by setting up an inactive account deletion time for your Google account) or indirectly (by not signing in your Yahoo account).
For those who have a Yahoo account and who have not signed in for the past year, their personal data stored under their account will be automatically deleted with no opportunity to recover it or to transfer it to anyone else by expressing their WILL as Google provides for example by offering the Inactive Account Manager tool.
Warning!
If you are not planning to have your account deleted and all your data erased (emails, pictures, chats, etc), please note that Yahoo Inc. plans to release the inactive accounts unless the current owner logs on again before July 15 (2013). After that, the (deleted) identifications will be available to all comers (as a fresh Yahoo account) and will be ready to use again in mid-August, while the data of the original user will be permanently erased!
Yahoo is resetting email accounts that have not been used for at least 12 months and issuing them to other users as they are trying to attract new users (by freeing unused email accounts) and retain current active users with IDs of their choice, the company is also giving inactive users the opportunity to retain them:
“All you have to do is log on to any Yahoo! product before July 15th. In future, these accounts will remain active by signing in at least once every 12 months, according to a Yahoo help notice, titled “We want you back.”
According to the above statement, All you have to do is log on to any Yahoo! product before July 15th, if you haven’t logged into Yahoo! for over a year, but want to keep your Yahoo! ID, and/or to log on any Yahoo! product at least once every 12 month if you want to keep your Yahoo! account active!
