When shopping online, I always use those disposable numbers that some credit cards issue, that way you don't have to give your real credit card number, you can put an amount limit and even a date limit, that way no one can withdraw more money than the amount you assigned.

Check the site's reputation first before you order.

I put together a great checklist to help secure your internet connection before you shop online. It's a bit of a shameless plug because it's a web site I developed, but it does cover all connections including wireless (and wi-fi protection) to help you. Check it out and I hope it helps.... http://www.lg-search.com/Secure.htm
