Online Shopping Malaysia - Tips for A Safe Shopping Experience

Assalamualaikum wbt
All praises to Allah SWT and His Messenger

Hi peeps. Hope you are doing well. Reading the blog title today, will surely bring you down to browse through the content of this blog. Guilty as charged, I admit, I am also among the shoppers that enjoy online shopping when it comes to certain things.

As a consumer and customer, it is best for us to be cautious at all times, especially when it comes to online shopping. Whether the payment is secure, whether it's not spam or etc. So, here are some useful tips for us to take note for a safe shopping experience.







Online shopping has become a new trend in our society these days as people are getting caught up in the many roles in life. From careers, family and other responsibilities, people will find a hard time to go out and enjoy some shopping. However, with the extensive growth of brands going online and the existence of shopping websites, everything could be bought with just a click of a button. Although online shopping seems to be the easy route to enjoy yourself, take into account a few tips for a safe shopping experience.

First and foremost, make sure that the website you are surfing on is a legitimate one. Use familiar websites which are trusted by many rather than shopping on a random one. Beware of websites which are using misspelled words or different domains as it may be a rip off. 
 

Make sure the sign as above is shown in your URL address

Next, before you make any purchase, you have to make sure there is a lock sign at the url. Never enter your bank details and purchase something from a website that has no lock sign that normally appears on the status bar of your browser or next to the url address. You do not want someone else to be collecting your details and draining your account online. This is a very important note to be remembered always when you are online shopping.


Another tip is to always give necessary or related information for your purchase. Do not give all info online as the more information you give, the more crooks can use your identity. If it is possible, only give information which are required by default to lessen the amount of details you give out on the internet. Fortunately, there are various shopping sites which provide a safe and secure payment method for their customers and this includes ZALORA. ZALORA is one of Asia’s online shopping destinations which offers a wide range of well-known brands for their customers to enjoy. If you are looking for a credible shopping site, ZALORA is definitely a perfect choice. 


So, happy shopping and most importantly, make sure you are purchasing from a credible website!

Assalamualaikum wbt. All praises to Allah SWT and His Messenger. Its already a week after Chinese New Year celebration, around a week after the exact day if I'm not mistaken. At this very moment, I am not alone. The non-stop rhythm of the fire crackers accompany me upon writing this entry :) Chinese New Year, yes. It is among the yearly celebration that I enjoy. Even though I am not a Chinese nor have a Chinese family members, but they are my friends and neighbours. I remembered waking up to a very very loud drum and cymbals sounds several years back. It was from a lion dance at a neighbour's house. It was a great feeling. Woke up to the sound, peep through the window, then rush downstairs and towards the celebrating house. I can't remember brushing my teeth, but I do think I did brush them. So anyway, at that moment, it was the first LIVE lion dance that I have seen from near, in my life. It was fun as I actually experienced the moment. I also remembered watching ano...

Assalamulaikum wbt All praises to Allah SWT and His Messenger. Woke up this morning to a neck ache and self-made sickness , despite sleeping early, quite early for a person who have a lot of work to do and who should stay up and do more before sleeping, I am not proud of myself. *aduhai.

Yesterday, before sleeping, I know I am able to face this, I know I am able to finish everything till the last. But, waking up today, I kind of having a different opinion about things. I woke up thinking of the past years question's presentation that we have to present later today. Thinking am I able to provide sufficient answers and elaboration and example,.................................and whether everything will be just fine as usual. Wondering where to start on Organizational Behavior's task too. Questionnaire first or characteristics. Then, remin...
