Site Feature: HONESTe Online

If you've browsed my site, you've probably wondered about that HONESTe Online seal in the Your Assurances box. It's sort of like a Better Business Bureau for online businesses. The image is clickable. The service publishes individual "consumer information pages" for its members' websites. They have a feedback center there as well.

The service has provided an excellent guide to safe buying online: Be Safe Online! - Revenge of the Online Shopper. I highly recommend it. It has great tips on how to protect your credit. For instance, it tells about a great strategy for using an ATM card for making online purchases that can prevent fraud from ever occurring in the first place. It tells about safe password usage, phishing, and spyware.
