Amazon and Flipkart sales have started, in which you are getting great discounts on products of different categories. But during these sales, cases of cheating and fraud also increase. Therefore, it is important for you to keep certain things in mind while shopping online, so that you do not become a victim of fraud.

Shop from a trusted site

Nowadays, there are many shopping platforms on social media, which tempt you with huge discounts. Therefore, always choose a known and reliable website for shopping. Shopping on an unknown website puts your account at risk of being hacked, due to which you can become a victim of cyber fraud.

Check the URL and site

Before visiting any website, check its URL carefully. Always visit the website starting with "https", as it is more secure. Apart from this, also pay attention to the domain name of the website like .in, .com etc. Be cautious before clicking on shopping websites shared on social media or by any third party, as it may be a fake website or URL, which may try to steal your personal information.

Be careful while buying on EMI

If you are shopping online and choosing EMI option for payment, then some things should be kept in mind. Interest has to be paid on EMI, so it would be better to choose the option of no-cost EMI. This will save you from the additional burden of interest.

Be aware of the return policy

When you buy something online, make sure to check its return policy. If you don't like the product or it doesn't meet your expectations, you should have the option to return it. Knowing the return policy will help you get your money back easily.

Do not buy defective products

Companies like Flipkart and Amazon offer open box delivery. This means that you can check the product before receiving it. If you get a defective product at the time of delivery, you can return the product to the delivery man. This will save you from spending money on a defective product.

Keep these things in mind while shopping

Check the credibility of the shopping site.
Get the URL and site information right.
