be regarded with care Online shoppers who enter their credit-card information may never receive the
goods they thought they bought.
The thieves then go shopping with your card number-or sell the information over the Internet.
Computer hackers(黑客)have broken down security(安全) system, raising questions about the safety
of card holder information.
Several months ago, 25,000 customers of a CD universe, an online music retailer(批发商), were
not lucky. Their names, addresses and credit-card numbers were posted on a Website after the retailer
refused to pay US $ 157,828 to get back the information.
Credit-card firms are now fighting against online fraud. Master-card is working on plans for Web
only credit-card, with a lower credit limit. The card could be used only for shopping online. However ,
there are a few simple steps you can take to keep from being cheated.

first US$ 78 of any fraudulent spending. And shop only at secure sites: send your credit-card information

their owners automatic credit in stores, restaurants, and hotels, at home, across the country, and
even abroad, and they make many banking services available as well. More and more of these credit
cards can be read automatically, making it possible to withdraw or deposit money in scattered locations,
whether or not the local branch bank is open. For many of us the "cashless society" is not on the
horizon----it"s already here.
While computers offer these conveniences to consumers, they have many advantages for sellers too.
Electronic cash registers can do much more than simply ring up sales. They can keep a wide range of
records, including who sold what, when, and to whom. This information allows businessmen to keep
track of their list of goods by showing which items are being sold and how fast they are moving.
Decisions to reorder or return goods to suppliers can then be made. At the same time these computers
record which hours are busiest and which employees are the most efficient, allowing personnel and
staffing assignments to be made accordingly. And they also identify preferred customer for promotional
campaigns. Computers are relied on by manufacturers for similar reasons. Computer analyzed marketing reports can help to decide which products to emphasize now, which to develop for the future and which
to drop. Computers keep track of goods in stock, of raw materials on hand, and even of the production
process itself.
