yeah up til now i still find the internet is not the best way transacting business as there are many sites that are scams. I only do transacting business via bank online but in a very limited ones. I also tried buying online using the credit card so far nothing bad happened but i've lots of report that say the internet transaction is not as reliable as doing it live.

I still feel a bit uncomfortable using the internet for any money transaction. For a long time that stopped me from even buying anything online because a credit card is the main way to do so. Until I found the solution for me. A credit card that I could charge or keep at zero at will. I found this trough money mart here in canada. This card works as a regular credit card, with the exception that it has no money value unless I charge it - I can go to money mart, and charge my card with whatever amount of money I want - and then use it in the internet for a purchase. If someone gets hold of the card number or whatever there is no more money there, so nothing can be done. This made me feel more secure about buying online because I don't use my regular credit card, just this platinum one and nobody can charge anything on it unless I had just deposited money there, and I only put more or less the right amount for what I have in mind to buy.
