s
face it, shopping for golf accessories
cannot be made more fun or more simple than
clicking a button.
But watch out, sitting at home and
shopping with such ease can also be
dangerous. Your credit card details can fall
in the wrong hands and unknown strangers can
use those details to run up humungous bills.
Spurious websites also sell your personal
details to other companies who then badger
you with unwanted phone calls, unsolicited
emails, flyers, brochures, and what-have-yous.
Some sites even insert malicious code on
your computer, known as a virus, which then
secretly captures and sends information like
your bank passwords to hackers, etc.
In order to avoid these dangers, just
take simple precautionary steps when you
shop online for your golf accessories
- only shop at websites which are
well-known and popular like eBay
- regardless of the ‘great deal’ or the
‘fabulous offer’ avoid visiting unknown
websites
- Look for the padlock on the bottom
right of your browser. This indicates that
the site is relatively safe
- Always use the best anti-virus and
anti-spy ware like Norton which gets rid of
malicious code installed on your PC
- Close your browser immediately if you
see any suspicious activity at a website
Such simple measures will help you shop
online for your golf accessories in relative
peace and security.
