| Allactiontrade.com cautions all members and readers to stay alert and act sensibly against such malicious intentions. We present before you some simple and sensible steps to ward off any unpropitious case of deceit. |
|
· |
The first step is to have a unique and uncommon user ID and unpredictable password. |
· |
Don't keep any account obsolete for long. |
· |
Never divulge sensitive information (password, credit/debit card number/ pins) on email, however important it seems. |
· |
Install an updated anti-virus and/or firewall to stay on the safe side even in case of unavoidable circumstances and to prevent unauthorized entry into your websites and accounts. |
· |
Insist on meeting the potential client in person as no amount of electronic correspondence can compensate the real on-site scrutiny. |
· |
Buyers should never order in bulk without asking for sample and seller should always ask for payment of sample of costly products. |
· |
Buyers should never deposit advance payment without thorough background check up to his satisfaction. Seller should always insist on L/C (letter of credit) especially for first time partners. |
· |
Always trust your intuition and stay conscious of anything suspicious regarding your partners. |
