To avoid fraud, keep these things in mind:-
Number 1
Stay away from fake apps or websites while online shopping
Never log into fake website or app
Do not click on any link received on message, email, etc., otherwise, you may get fraud.
Number 2
Never save your banking information on any online shopping website or app even by mistake.
Many people save credit-debit card information, internet banking ID-password, etc., but do not do this.
Number 3
Stay away from offers
Please check any offer before believing it or clicking on it.
Never click on links for offers received through email, message, WhatsApp, or other sources, otherwise, you may get cheated.
Number 4
Stay away from such apps or websites that ask for permission for things on your mobile or computer without any need.
These apps first take permission and then can steal your data behind your back and harass you.
Therefore, always download a reliable app from the Play Store only after checking its reviews and ratings.
