  • Answer:

    Credit cards are the most convenient way to shop online. With credit card comes the ability to shop from anywhere and anytime. Due to all these facilities and simplified online shopping procedures, credit cards are at the centered of an e-commerce boom. But, instances of credit card fraud while online shopping are not unheard and are growing day by day. What can save you from such online credit card frauds? Here we look at vital tips to make sure that you don't fall into these traps. 1. Yellow lock symbol in your browser's status bar Modern web browsers ( a software that is used to surf the internet) are quite safe and respond to safe sites. They do it by embedding a yellow lock in the status bar of your browser whenever they go to a secure website. Always check for this yellow lock in the status bar of your browser. 2. https:// and yellow address bar Whenever you reach a secure website the url of your website will change from http:// to https:// and along with this, if you are using a latest web browser the color of the status bar will also change to yellow. Some browser show a yellow lock right there in the address bar. 3. Encryption E-commerce websites, which practice safe shopping experience for their customers use 128 bit encryption and more to transfer the data. This is the latest and most secure way of transmitting your credit card information and personal details over the internet. If a shopping website uses this encryption technology it will say it somewhere on their website. The usual place to check is the footer or header of the website where the logos of such encryptions are displayed prominently.

There's a lot of danger of fraud unfortunately. Try my company's credit card for a safe card you can use online. Our website is www.aKaCard.com . Best of luck with finding the best guitar for cheap. A good website for that is jellyfish.com

Nothing is certain. You need to take the risk to save money or spend more money to avoid risk. The choice is yours.

expensive? umm dude any "quality" acoustic is going to cost more! 1 if you look on eBay, the pay pal credit card protection will be a good safety measure. 2 cheaper price? cheaper than what 10,000USD 1000USD, what is the price and what guitar are you speaking of?. I just bought a Used1995 Ramirez A-1 for $8,900 * which was an outstanding price, from a dealer in the UK. with out knowing what it is you are specifically interested in? no one will be able to answer you with any accuracy. consider the proven reputation of the seller, their length of time in business and the average price of the instrument you want then decide what you are going to get, as close as you are to Seville Spain? I think you can find a decent guitar for a reasonable price there!~ cheers
