nothing is perfect, but the odds of something happening are VERY SLIM. almost all sites out there that accept credit cards are encrypted and are difficult to hack into.\n\nI do not think you have anything to worry about, unless you are everyday, purchasing from multiple websites. I have been buying stuff on the internet using paypal, and private websites without a hitch. its really not scary :)

I would only visit the sites I am 100% sure are safe. Other than that, turn your computer off.

Yes it is very safe.  I've been using Paypal for years without any problem.  I even use their debit card which takes money directly from my Paypal account.  It even give me cash back bonus each time I use debit card.\n\nI do alot of transactions using Paypal because I own online business, and found it very necessary to do business online.\n\nYou can signup for Paypal at the following link:\n\nhttps://www.paypal.com/us/mrb/pal=TP53YF5MF4NBS

As safe as anywhere else on earth. Sure, if you give away personal information on it, that's not safe, but that doesn't have anything to do with the site itself now does it? Running down the street yelling "I'M 12 AND LIVE AT BLAH BLAH BLAH STREET AND MY PHONE NUMBER IS BLAH BLAH BLAH" is just as unsafe.

You'd really have to be more specific for any of us to help you.  Like, what kind of products; are they illegal to be sold online; are you the company, needing advice?\n\nPlease fill us in (as much as you can without any trouble).  :)

Allways make sure that it's a good authentic site when giving out your credit card. Have a firewall like Zonealarm, get a dynamic ip addresss, which changes you raddress everytime you log on into the internet making it hard for hackers to track you. Never give out you social security card, and avoid giving out person information. For scams anything for free or what just doesn't sound right like, Buy a stock of google for a dollar, should be avoided.Anything thats advertised on a site isn't good and also should be ignored.

If you are a young person still living at home, your parents are responsible for what goes in the computer and your brain. I know all my kids emails,webs,everything, the net is a very dangerous place we must take care of our kids. Even though I have all their info I do not go into their accounts as a rule. I have adminstrator and check out the activity there. It is my computer that I share with my kids so I want it the way, I want it. Cool about the stocks how did you buy any? And your mom maybe just needs to be reassured that you are going to be safe online. \nTake Care from a former teenager,now mom ~A~

Here are some reviews from actual users:\n\nhttp://www.drugbuyers.com/freeboard/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=305176\n\nOne caution though ... I have bought from online pharmacies before and many of them, no matter what their privacy policy says, will sell your name, number and prescription info to other online companies.  At one point I was getting 5 or 6 calls a day from various companies all calling me by name and telling me my "refill" for ____ was "ready to ship".  At one point one of these companies actually ran through an authorization on my credit card for several hundred dollars.  I was furious.  I ended up getting my credit card changed because I was afraid of fraudulent charges.  The phone calls were driving me crazy and I nearly changed my number because of it.  They don't ever take you off their list when you tell them to, and being on the "do not call" list doesn't help one bit either.  They call from the Phillipines and the Miami area mostly. Because of all of this, I will never ever buy medication online again.

I don't have qany experience with that site myself, but does it meet all the requirements to be safe? You can read my article on how to avoid internet money scams at:\nhttp://www.webcashlink.com/articles/work-from-home.html

Nope... they are not legit and don't fall for it...\n\nIf you have to pay anyone, then get out of that site...\n\nHave a great day!\n\nPS:  Try QVC or the Home Shopping Channel.  Their customer reps work from home taking customer's orders.  Perhaps you might want to look into that.  They are legit and do not charge you.  All is required is a PC at home and basic computer skills.  They also teach you to use their ordering software.
