It is probably more dangerous to hand your credit card to some 16 year old, puke, kid cashier at the local store. Who knows what that kid will do with your number!

There are popups that provide things like free laptops in exchange for giving your personal information away for resale to third party advertising and marketing companies.  I would not do this.  More free advice for you: never give out a credit card number when someone tells you that you have won something.  Usually they tell you it is for something like shipping charges.  If they are giving away a $800 laptop, they can afford shipping charges.\n\nIf you are a student, I would write as many companies as possible and provide some information about yourself.  Direct the letter/email to the "Director of Information Technology".  It would be best to specifically name the person (use research to find the name of the Director".  Identify your self with verifiable information.  Explain that you are a student and you were wondering if they have any old laptops they are willing to donate for educational purposes.  If you are under 18, do not give out any personal information; let your parents help you.  This is very important.

First, yes I frequently shop online  and find it quite safe. Many safety measures have been implemented to make it safer for everyone; better encryption for example; also some credit card companies will give you an extra password to enter after your # to assure that it's truly you using your card, which I like.)\n\nSafe Shopping .org was created by the American Bar Association to help consumers to order safely when shopping online.\n\nIt might be a good idea for you to go over the different sections and familiarize yourself with what you should look for and be wary of, so that  you'll be able to feel more confident and savy about shopping online.\n\nHappy shopping! :)

Probably not, but here is what I do..when I get credit card stuff in the mail, I take my name off it, stuff and the crap back in the return envelope and send it to the company, they have to pay the postage on it. A minor victory for us small guys...ha ha...

In order to receive a CC, you must furnish private info including SS#.  It is not advisable to apply for credit card online.

I like Amazon.com.  They have everything from books, movies, watches.  Anything you can imagine.  I have used them several times and have never had a problem.  Their website is very user friendly also.\n\nToday, there are many websites that are safe.  When you are inputting your credit card information and so forth, make sure the address has https, rather than the basic, http.  The "s" stands for secure.

come on ang!!! ebay is harmless!!! do you ask him everytime you want to buy yourself something? ebay is no different than going to the mall and buying something.\n        actually, it is quite addictive, with the bidding and feeling like you won at the end, even if you did spend multiples of what you had intended. your right, change the credit card number you have on file with ebay that you registered with, and you wont be able to bid anymore if you give them a fictitious number.

safe sites are recognized with a small yellow padlock at the bottom of your browser, if the site doesn't display it don't buy anything.  I've shopped over the net for years and never had a problem so far

Do not give your credit card information to anyone on the internet unless you are making a purchase from a reputable site.

Ebay is the only one that has that credit card number.  The person you are buying from will never see that information.  Ebay will charge you credit card and then transfer the money to the sellar

Well, I had one I bought from my bank & she assured me it could, but when I tried, I was very frustrated to find it couldn't b/c of not being personalized.\n\nTurns out that my particular website I was trying it on (& lots of others) want to be able to verify the name along w/the address.  It had no name & therefore no address, so there I was with a card I had funded for $350 with no cashback option.  \nFrustrating to say the least!

If you don't want to leave a 'trail' use cash or check then! The short answer to your question is YES there is always something showing up on your statement...it depends on what the 'business' calls itself to the bank....It may be a florist called Rosie's from Interflora which may show as Rosie's Florist or Interflora.....it totally depends on what the company wants to be known as on transactions and what the Bank abreviates their name to.....\n\nHaving bought many things online with credit cards there is always some reference back to that transaction.

If the frequently used websites are not financial websites you can either choose the option of remebering password and login information...A Fine rule of thumb Stop being lazy and fill it out everytime. Thiers people out thier who fish on your internet line and keep cookies and other data packets with sniffer programms that read thru your recent history. That is how identity theft is done.\nJohn\nA+ Certified Professional

If you just stored it on the computer it should be ok unless you have a 4 year old protection program witch is useless against the viruses now of days.\nif you sent your identification through the eternet with out first saving it on a disk or card theres a chance that ur in hot water because the place you sent it probly isnt all that protected.\nbtw: how are bills coming along? (not that Im trying to get into your buisness)
