Greetings!
I believe that as Consumers we have a responsibility to become informed so that we're not "ripped off." I include myself in part of this group as I shop at home in my sweats. The time to do the research is prior to making purchases.
In the process of seeking out resources for Online Shoppers to have quick and easy information to become more security conscious when making online purchases, I found some awesome sites.
My new favorite site is the one put out by the American Bar Association. Their simple, no-nonsense approach of providing information in language that is lacking legalese is very Consumer friendly. I like the information so much that I added a link to it on my web site in the hopes that all will easily find the information and pass it along to those who are concerned about shopping safely online. The site is easy to navigate as well.
Another resource is the Better Business Bureau Online program. The information and education sections are very informative as well, however there's so much happening on the one site that one could get "lost" navigating. I must admit, I probably spent a couple of hours reading on the site, and would get redirected to other "parent" sites and not easily find my way back to the content I was looking for when I first visited the site.
I will add other resources over time. If we as consumers do our homework prior to purchasing by becoming informed, then the transaction issues should be minimal.
Safe Shopping till another day,
Mo
