  2. The characteristics of the online store Fraudster:
    • The absence of the account number listed on the website, you'll receive an account number from which the SMS account number is always changing
    • With photo or scan of ID card, business license, etc

    • Sellers admitted Black Market products so cheap price. Keep in mind the price of goods Black Market unlikely half price
  3. Ask all account numbers, do not mention one of the banks. Just ask all. If only 1, this reduces the level of confidence. An online seller who really have more than one account number, with the name of the same account holder.

  7. If the seller has a website, check the seller's website, starting from the domain, the domain owner, phone number domain. Check Whois Record, for example in http://www.domaintools.com. The older the age of the domain made, the greater the confidence level. In contrast, the younger the age of a domain, the smaller the confidence level. Check also in http://www.alexa.com, the smaller the Alexa ranking, the greater the confidence level. Instead bigger Alexa ranking, then the smaller the confidence level. Avoid if Alexa Rank of more than 3,000,000. If the seller is using a free domain name (tk, .co.cc, .cc.cz etc.), blogspot, wordpress it had reduced the level of confidence of 25%. Not possible online stores with products that are plentiful and cheap, but only using a free domain, blogspot and wordpress.
