Some online precautions you should take are:

1. Making sure there is a contact address and phone number on the website.
2. Making sure you see the"s" in "https..." in the URL on the screen where you're entering your credit card info. The "s" means "secure" and it means your credit card and sensitive information will be protected.
3. Being sure you do a search for any reviews on the store you're buying from.
4. Trusting your gut feeling when you're in the store. If it doesn't "feel" right, you should probably leave and shop somewhere else.
