Usually the user are the security weakest link. In fact credit card trading online is safe, provided that the user had some basic security knowledge. We should NEVER expose our credit infor to anyone at any time. Never expose your credit card billing address to others. (It is needed for verification when buy things online & it is the only information not written or visible on the card.) When you are opening the web site where you are required to enter all the details. Keep below items in mind: 1) Is is a secure site with encryption? Loot at the address bar, it will show something like https://www..... instead of http://www..... 2) Is it a trustable site? Those establish & well know site wont fish your cc info & resell to other people. Well known trusted site is like amazon.com, paypal.com, ebay.com & many more. 3) Make sure no stranger is staring from behind at your screen when u r filling up your credit number.
