Online banking is awesome enormously popular way of doing anything with money.We can do almost everything sitting home. But when you talk about safety then it comes mostly to your computer or where ever you use it. Two things i know by which online banking scams happen one is phishing and second is trojans. So u just have to avoid those. for more info on safety while online banking check this out http://www.banksafeonline.org.uk/protecting_yourself.html.

hi acisMahrje, I'm actually cautious and a bit scared of any online banking transactions. Last week, I paid online using my credit card, I got paranoid and so worried because after i have entered my security pin the page crashed and I can't retrieve it. I checked my credit card balance and last transaction through phone and was informed that everything is okay. But it made so scared and paranoid...as much as possible I don't purchase online.

acismarje I have banked on line for years and its super safe it you have a reputable bank like Bank of America. the site has a lock and key symbol inthe lower left hand side of the page, as long as you bank on line with a b ank that has this protection you are really safe. I have never had the slightest problem and never will with B of A. You must always see the key and lock in the lower left hand corner of the page. this is a safe site always.

I always check and not arbitrary in accessing online banking, I always clean the password and my user id also the cookies if I use it in other places. for using online banking seem I rarely and only check my balance, also not to conduct transactions.
