Check the Website Before Ordering
Before shopping online, check that you are using the correct website address and review the available contact information, payment options and store policies.
Avoid entering personal details through unfamiliar links or messages that claim to represent a store.

If you use an account, choose a strong password that you do not reuse elsewhere. Be careful when shopping on shared devices.
- Avoid sharing account passwords and one-time passwords.
- Review saved information when using a shared browser.
- Sign out of accounts on shared devices.
- Check payment and delivery instructions before responding to messages.
