I usually check for the lock symbol and use strong passwords, but is that really enough these days?

I tend to stick to bigger, well-known stores for online shopping, just in case. Not sure if that makes much difference, but I feel like it lowers the risk a bit. It’s wild how creative scammers can get these days.
Honestly, you’re right to be cautious. Phishing sites and fake payment pages are everywhere now. Besides checking for HTTPS, I always use unique passwords for financial sites and turn on two-factor authentication where possible. Also, it helps to read up on practical tips from folks who know the field—there’s a post with simple advice and best practices at cybersecurity. Stuff like not saving your card in browsers and keeping your devices updated goes a long way too. I had my card info stolen once just from a browser autofill, so now I’m extra careful and double-check everything.
