Safe Shopping Tips from the FTC
FTC Consumer Alert titled "Holiday Shopping? How To Be On Guard When You’re Online" - great tips that everyone should read no matter what time of year it is.
The site also contains a link to OnGuard Online, which goes into more detail about ways to protect yourself.
From the OnGuard Online site:
"OnGuardOnline.gov provides practical tips from the federal government and the technology industry to help you be on guard against Internet fraud, secure your computer, and protect your personal information."
There's also a fun little "Auction Action" game you should play while you're there, it will test your smarts about using online auction sites. Unfortunately I can't provide a link since it opens in its own pop-up window, but you'll find it near the top center of the page at the OnGuard Online site.

Greetings Twigs!
I really appreciate your Safe Shopping posts and the fact that you've provided links to other important and relevant information.
I believe an educated buyer is a more confident buyer and is great for all of us who buy and sell online.
I have linked to your blog on my MoTreasures.biz web site under Consumer Resources in the hopes that our customers find the information as useful as I have.
Thank you and keep up the great posts!
Mo
