Online shopping has increasingly become a lifestyle pursued by young people. But is online shopping safe enough? Is there enough "checkpoints" to prevent risks? This reporter recently conducted an online test on 10 popular shopping websites, and found that many websites are not safe yet.

Website: Tesco 365 (www.ego365.com)
Tested at:, December 25, December 5
Security Index:★★★★☆

Reporter's Experience: After registering a personal account, the reporter purchased a box of German Black Knight gold leaf chocolate gift box on the website, worth 80.80 yuan, and then placed it in the "Shopping Basket" and checked out. There are three payment methods, including cash payment, online payment and online payment. The reporter chose "online payment ". After you click "OK", the payment gateway shown on the webpage is China UnionPay payment gateway and ICBC online banking payment respectively. Because the handheld Dragon card, the reporter can only select the UnionPay payment gateway. After one minute, I entered the Chinapay payment page. The reporter filled in the card number, validity period, and password of the China Construction Bank longcard as needed. After the ticket was submitted, the computer showed that the payment was successful.

Reporter's comment: online payment requires a credit card password and goes through a third-party online payment platform, including the Chinapay payment page and the ICBC payment page, with high security performance.


Website: eBay (www.eachnet.com)
Tested at:, December 15, December 15
Security Index:★★☆☆☆

Reporter's Experience: friends who have had online transaction experience do not know eBay. As the largest online shopping website in China, eBay has many payment methods, but what is the payment process of credit card? Is there any risk? Maybe many shoppers do not care too much about the risks.

The reporter logged on to eBay website and registered a product for sale. According to regulations, eBay charges 10 yuan for each item sold or purchased by login. Then, the reporter clicked "payment center" to pay. There are four options for online payment: China Merchants Bank Card, industrial and commercial credit card, other bank credit card and debit card payment. The reporter chose "other bank credit card" and then chose "Bank of China Great Wall card" for payment. Enter the cardholder's name, card number, validity period, and ID card at the bottom of the page. After selecting the payment amount, click "pay" to complete the online payment process.

Reporter's comment: the password is not required during the whole process. This makes it easy to steal others' card numbers and validity periods, and provides a good opportunity for consumption. Because the card numbers and validity periods are printed on credit cards, there are many opportunities for leakage.


Website: Dell Computer (www.dell.com.cn)
Tested at:, January 1, December 13
Security Index:★★☆☆☆

Reporter's experience: the Dell Computer website recommends that consumers, if you want to use credit card payment, try to contact sales staff by phone to enhance security and confidentiality. Therefore, the reporter dialed the Dell Computer's consultation phone number 800-858-0888. According to the voice service prompts, after a long wait, the sales staff was finally connected. The reporter asked the salesperson what personal information they need to provide when paying by credit card. The answer is: after the order is confirmed, you only need to provide credit card numbers, credit card validity periods, and personal ID card numbers to the sales staff to complete the payment.

Reporter's comment: the entire purchase and order process does not require a credit card password. Once personal data is leaked, criminals are given the opportunity.


Website: Dangdang (www.dangdang.com)
Tested at:, January 1, December 4
Security Index:★★★☆☆

Reporter's experience: the reporter buys a DVD on the website, puts it into the "Shopping Basket" and closes the bill. The website shows that you need to register. Enter the email and password as instructed to complete the registration. After you select the payment method to make an online payment, go to a special payment page. The reporter saw that the website supports a lot of bank cards. Select the Bank of China, and then select Great Wall Credit Card (Shanghai ). The webpage displays the "Trans transaction Portal". After a few minutes, the page goes to the payment page of chinapay.com. Enter the card number, password, and validity period. The password is the password on the ATM. After the order is entered, the computer outputs the order and the payment is successful.

Reporter's comment: the website requires a password for online payment, and the chinapay payment page provides better security performance. However, for security purposes, your credit card password should be changed frequently to prevent unauthorized use on the Internet.

Tested at:, January 1, December 9
Security Index:★★★☆☆

Reporter's experience: the reporter bought a DVD cartoon "cat and mouse" on the website, and clicked "check now" to display "delivery information": Recipient's phone number, detailed address, etc, after filling in the information, select "Next" and select the delivery method and payment method. Select "bank card" as the payment method and select "domestic credit card". Currently, you can use China Construction Bank longcard, China Bank Changcheng card, and China Agricultural Bank jinsui card. The reporter can see the following information: the cardholder's name, ID card number, card number, and validity period, without a password. If you are using the China Merchants Bank "One Netcom" or the ICBC Peony card, you can choose to pay online after purchasing the product, link to the payment page of China Merchants Bank or ICBC, where you must enter the payment card number and password. For international credit cards, you only need to enter the card number and validity period.

Reporter comment: online payment seems to be determined by the bank. If you use a credit card from ICBC and CMB to make payment, it will be converted to the banking system and the password will be required, while some other credit cards do not need a password, although the domestic credit card requires an ID card number, compared with international credit cards, you only need to enter the card number and validity period, but the security of the payment process is still not high.

Tested at:, January 1, December 9
Security Index:★★★★☆

After logging on to the "Yonghe King" webpage, you can pick your favorite food, whether it's four king kong or their special fast food, you can place orders quickly. The reporter chose a fish-flavored chicken rice, a tofu brain, two egresses, and two fried dough sticks, totaling 23.1 yuan.

In terms of settlement, Yonghe King chose a conservative and safest way, that is, cash on delivery. During the checkout, "Yonghe dawang" asked reporters to leave the phone number that is most likely to be contacted, and reminded that if the phone number is a line on the Internet, the network should be quickly disconnected after confirmation, so that the company can confirm by phone 10 minutes later. Just as the reporter was skeptical, the phone number of the "Yonghe dawang" service personnel had already been called in. After confirming all the food they had just ordered, she promised to deliver the goods within an hour. Everything went smoothly. Yonghe dawang chose a store closest to reporters. After 45 minutes, hot meals were delivered, and 23.1 yuan was paid in cash. The transaction ended smoothly.

Reporter's comment: China Merchants Bank's online payment card is a specialized online payment tool, neither debit card nor credit card. The reporter called the service staff of xinegao and learned that the user first applied for an online payment card on the website of China Merchants Bank, and then transferred the amount in the debit card of China Merchants Bank to the online payment card through the network, use an online payment card for online payment.

No information is displayed on the webpage that is paid by China Merchants Bank (China Netcom). The reporter calls Meilin zhengguang's consulting phone number 96858, and the other party's service personnel informs that their online payment has not yet been activated.

Reporter's comment: online payment is a trend. It seems that Merlin is trying to make online payment. Online payment is undoubtedly very convenient for the masses, but security issues are equally important. When designing an online payment system for a website, pay attention to the principle of security first in addition to convenience.
