Account Hacking
Most, if not everybody, will know or heard about their accounts being hacked and loosing money.
What I have done to prevent this is I have opened a new debit account that I use only for online purchases.
maximum amount I keep in that account is less than $30 so if that account gets hacked the most than you can loose is what is in the account. You can have less that $30 if you want, its up to you, maybe just $5.
when I want to purchase something on line I transfer the amount into the account and pay for the purchase immediately which brings your account back to the small amount. I use PayPal most of the time but this will work for any online purchases.
But it MUST a DEBIT card NOT a CREDIT card.
I hope this will help some of you
If I cannot use Paypal for my online purchase I just do not buy.
