Worried about buying online? Police's security tips for shopping online.

There are many benefits to online shopping, but it comes with a huge disclaimer: BE VERY CAREFUL!!

You can check out the Australian Federal Police's tips for shopping safely online here. It's also an important read for business owners to make sure they're promoting and encouraging potential buyers to feel secure when using their website.

If you're buying from an unfamiliar website, an additional tip of mine is to trial the website out with a cheaper purchase before you go spending hundreds of dollars on a first purchase. Some questions to ask are:

1. Did the website deliver a quality product? and;
2. Did they deliver the item to you within an appropriate timeframe?

Feel free to share any of your other tips or positive or negative experiences with online shopping in the comment section below.
