There are some tips to avoid online scam
Written by James dong
Some people may have not experience in online shopping, they may worry about if they can not receive goods after the payment or the goods are not in line with the products that the seller posted on the website, or payment security problems.
First, we can check the business partners’ credit online to check how long the online shop has been opened, and the business transaction volumes in the past.
Second, Google is the largest search engines, some people who have been cheated may post some information on some websites, which can be searched out by Google. We can check if there is any negative news on the company or the online shop or we can check if there are any bad comments on the cell phone or fixed telephone number who the business partner left on the website.
Third, we can ask for company registration or business licenses, which can be scanned and emailed online.
Fourth, we can call the business partners by fixed telephone number but not on cell phones. Any company with only a cell phone is not trustable for business dealing, companies with fixed telephone number is more convincing, but it is not always working even though the other party can offer a fixed telephone number.
Fifth, you can pretend to want to finish the transaction from the suppliers address and check the other party is willing to accept cash pay or not.
Scammers will never agree but real supplier will agree to this.
