The Better Business Bureau's Checklist for Online Shopping

To help you shop safely online, the B.B.B. recommends you take the following common sense steps:

  • Don't rely on a professional looking website as proof of a Company's quality or good reputation.
  • Investigate a company or seller before you buy.
  • Find out where a company is physically located to help avoid overseas or offshore scams.
  • Never give out your bank account number, credit card number, or personal information unless you're certain a company is legitimate.
  • Pay for your purchases by credit or charge card which can be protected under the relevant Fair Billing Credit Act.
  • Find out about a company's return or refund policies before you purchase. (For Goway, visit Booking Conditions)
  • Always use a secure Internet browser that "encrypts" or scrambles your personal information.
